It's incredibly useful when dealing with remote computers. Right now I'm working on some php order pages on a server in the USA. I'm looking at the remote directory server in Konqueror which has been split to show a local working directory in the left window. So I can easy drag & drop files between the local & remote server to work on them, create backups etc. To edit the remote php files I simply right click on the file on the remote server and it is loaded into kate on my computer. Every time I press CTRL-S to save it's saved directly back to the remote server. That means I can make changes and test the result in a browser in 2-3 seconds. No messing around with a separate FTP program.
