That's one use of GSSAPI. It seems reasonable to me to use GSSAPI in
a mechanism-specific manner because it is easier to use or because you
like what it does better than native mechanism specific APIs.
Realizing this was reasonable took a long time for me and many members
of the Kerberos community may still disagree with this.
