Another reason I could think of is so that Average Joe can use the same Jabber Client on two machines without the need to know how to change the resource - but for that, the client could generate a random resource when the account is added and save that.
The notion that the end-user must do anything to be able to use two clients on different machines should ring alarm bells.
End-users should not even see the resource setting. They should only see/know about bare JIDs. Resources are a technicality that have no business at the user level.
