After reading your post I asked about it one of our board designer that recently was busy developing a board with very challenging supply requirements.
He told me that linear regulators with very low drop certainly exist, but they have one big disadvantage - they poorly reject medium frequency noise (200 KHz to few MHz) when it comes from input voltage side. Only those with drop of 300 mV or more are filtering incoming ripples really well.

But, then again, he probably don't care all that much about regulators with small output current.
