Everyone here is on about the luggage rule inversion.

The black coffee idea sounds pretty good at first, until you have to work on a typical espresso machine. After the 4th black coffee the next few teas, americanos or steamings are slow and crap. Unless you add water from a separate boiler, or it's a drip coffee.

It would definitely depend on the cafe set up, but I would love this for places that serve drip, which is pretty much all I drink.

How (and why) would you make tea on an espresso machine?

The ones I have worked with have a button or twist handle for boiling water. Since it uses it for making espesso anyway, why not have the option to pour some on top of a teabag?

(I just re-read the question: to clarify, I meant proper, large, three-group espresso machines)
