I dont see a practical application for a worm gear, the gear ratio is way too high as per typical worm gears and you wouldn't have the room to mesh it up with another gear unless you were using a v6 box.
Also, you'd never be able to release the spring pressure since the gears cant spin free while on a worm gear. It would get around the use of an anti reversal latch very well though. Maybe if you matched it up with a ptw style optical sensor on the sector gear...
This would be for a V6 or pgc mechbox though, where you'd have the room to mesh the worm to a spur gear
For a v2 application, a hypoid gear would work, but it would be almost strictly for aesthetics.
