Comment (by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 The use-case for dependency injection is probably too broad for a Trac
 answer. In a nutshell, though, it's about composition, loose coupling, and
 testability. A URL for further reading:

 In the event it needs to be stressed, the purpose to be play better with
 PHP frameworks such as Symfony 2:

 I was looking into creating a sensible WP Widget wrapper that played well
 with a Symfony DIC when I opened this ticket.
