I can confirm they exist, as one of the places I sometimes work has one - the base unit has a button for 70°/80°/90°/100°.

However, despite probably drinking in excess of 50,000 cups of tea in my life, I've only ever seen one of these kettles. The others have all been either "normal electric kettles" as you described, those always-on-water-boiler things you get in offices, or very occasionally, a traditional "put it on the hob or camping stove" kettle.
