I had a use for the NotesHTTPRequest side of this just today, where I wanted to call REST APIs deployed via OSGi on the Domino server to share logic. I think the production servers use LTPA tokens, but I didn't want to bother binding to the C API to generate such a token "manually".
I worked around it by adding a secret header value that the JAX-RS handler accepts to allow act-as-user, but that's not practical for any other similar situation.
A use case would be an Notes client application where you use a web page to display something more complex like a pie chart or graph. You don't want the Notes user to have to authenticate when they already have.
