I connect to remote machines several times in a typical workday, and this helps to save a bit of time. Furthermore, it allows some non-obvious behaviour, like closing the connection as soon as I did what I wanted. This avoids leaving a ssh session open in which you may erroneusly type a command intended for your local machine. An "svn up" on the wrong machine car ruin your day.
