Mode-S enhanced surveillance, look&feel?

It had been mentioned elsewhere here that London ATC is capable of receiving the Mode-S parameters called DAP, like IAS, MCP selected altitude, Heading, Mach, Roll Angle aso.

My questions would be:
Are these data available all the time at the radar console? Or do they need to be (electronically) requested for a particular airplane?
Are they displayed as part of the regular label or elsewhere on the screen?
Are these data of any value for you, do you regularily work with these?

Thanks for your answers
