The Elvish shell <https://github.com/elves/elvish/> uses panic capture to ensure an interactive Elvish shell that paniced is replaced by a recovery shell. While still outputting important information about the panic. See this code <https://github.com/elves/elvish/blob/684cfc2c82d71f9a1e35fbf5d6dc4874dfe45bde/pkg/shell/interact.go#L132-L143>. In other words, sometimes you want to ensure that a) information about the panic is captured (such as logging the panic via an external service) and b) doing something other than simply terminating. Whether to capture a panic is obviously dependent on the specific situation.
I'll also note that I'm working on a change to the Elvish project that will capture a panic to solve the problem of the builtin "exit" command not triggering deferred behaviors; such as capturing profiling data. See this issue <http://issue-1377-exit-and-defers>. So that is another, highly context dependent, case where capturing a panic is useful. I've got to say that Go's panic/recover mechanism is a beautiful design.
