they are not useless (well i know only busybox-initrd is useless), but you 
just do not use them. and

hard to give examples for "ALL INITRD PROGRAMS"

however incomplete list would be:
- lvm
- splashutils
- dmraid
- /usr/lib/suspend/resume (already not in $PATH)
- /sbin/initrd-udevd
- /sbin/initrd-lvm (needs to be named lvm.static to work)
- ...

run this to get more ideas:
$ grep inst /sbin/geninitrd
