One simple strong reason is that I don't want to run tomcat by root.
The debian/ubuntu deb package installs tomcat6 so that it uses authbind to listen on ports < 1024, and it runs under its own non-root uid/gid. I was very impressed when I converted from tomcat5 as a vanilla install to tomcat6 as a deb.
Even if you are not on debian, perhaps looking at the installation script and file structure will help you set up something similar.
