I have not seen a need for centred text alignment.

I mainly see right alignment used on long pages where the author wants
to insert a link to the top of the page, so it's close to the scroll
bar and doesn't interfere with reading.

The markup currently used for this is to start a line with:

   =>

I also find it useful to omit right aligned text from the
printable view of a page, because authors normally use it for
navigation.

If I had a need for centred text, I would possibly use:

   =|

Occasionally, we have centred graphics, and these end up as tables:
