 I currently use it in two classes (breadcrumbs & pagination) for function
 routing/name guessing. It lets me avoid long {{{if/elseif/else}}}
 statements and long {{{switch( $case )}}} statements.

 {{{
 $output = array();
 foreach ( get_conditionals() as $conditional )
 {
     // Can catch everything using a simple string replace:
     $fn_name = str_replace( 'is_', 'get_', $conditional );
     if ( method_exists( __CLASS__, $fn_name ) )
         $output[] = $this->$fn_name( $args );
 }
 }}}

 If someone is not so much into consistant naming, it wouldn't help too
 much. I'm sure there are other use cases that I'm currently not aware of,
 but it's a public API extension that doesn't hurt if you don't use it.
