With XMLPersistenceManager I agree with you that it's not very useful, but another persistence implementation could allow jackrabbit to share files with other systems (e.g. through webdav), maybe not very efficient but sometimes integration with legacy systems is a must.
Besides, VFS might be useful if you don't feel like implementing a file system from scratch.
