Very basic data which is sometimes revealed graphically on TV in both F1 and A1GP anyway. It will reveal where the car was fast without revealing how. May reveal some pointers to the more inexperienced drivers. I doubt it would reveal much to the engineers except confirm what they already know. Though it might occasionally be useful to teams who are setting up the car in the 'wrong' direction. Then again set up is such a black art that 'wrong' may actually turn out to be better than 'right', if it all comes together. So would the data revealed be helpful? Who knows!
Teams who 'twin' have tried identical set ups and yet some how perform differently. Especially true where drivers have different driving styles
