I've only heard it discussed in jazz writing/arranging. I'm trying to recall any use in classical music, but I'm having trouble recalling all the various cadence names and functions, let alone any harmonic analysis I had to do. I'd be curious to hear from a theorist about this, but I'm not interested enough to spend much time researching it. I was just recalling that a ii V was described as such as early as the 1750s or so, not suggesting that I was a theory expert. I was just happy to get through the classes!
