Let me try an example.  Take a pretty rich web app like markmail: 
http://tapestry.markmail.org/search/?q=tapestry

When you search on markmail,  it causes a whole page refresh. (not what I'm
trying to do).  But, what if instead it updated just the applicable
components on the page, such as the search results, using Ajax?  This is
basically what I'm trying to accomplish with my web app.

In general, I think one could argue that the 'richer' your application
becomes (fatter webpages with alot of Ajax), the higher chance you might
want something like this.  I think there are less common usecases why this
would be useful for more traditional web apps.
