One of the main reasons, for me at least, will be the ability to add SSL capabilities to a site. CherryPy does not support SSL.
Another reason may be to integrate your turbogears app with an existing site that runs PHP. Since you can't run two servers on the same port and running a public service on a non-standard port is... well... non-standard, proxying/WSGI/SCGI is the way to go.
