There are lot's of reasons for this. You can drag and drop a file to perform some automated task on it, or just automate some task. You can also use cron jobs to launch the app. Just the other day I whipped up a tiny app that lets me drag and drop files/folders onto my app's icon to use 7zip for archiving. Those are simple examples but you can do quite a bit without an interface :)
