I can give a use case. It is not Extbase-related but it comes from a real 
project.

There is a community site with user profile pages, that are implemented 
using many plugins. Each page has a sidebar that shows user's profile 
summary. Main content is generated by different plugins (over 20 kinds of 
them). All plugins (incl. sidebar) use a common URL parameter to get the id 
of the user to display. It is not possible to use a different parameter for 
each plugin/page because:
- the sidebar will have to know them all
- RealURL confioguration will be a nightmare

One solution would be to create a service that returns the user but it adds 
more complexities to the system and causes other issues. So having a common 
parameter is technically the most feasible solution.
