One frequent use I see for it is when you have a set of
domain-specific abstractions with concepts like "plus", and so on,
where you don't want to say

(behavior+ (behavior* (const-behavior 5) (behavior ... ....)))

but rather use "+", "*" and so on, but only in a  local context like
so

(with-behavior-bindings
  ...)

This avoids the use of overloading which, in Haskell, sometimes
introduces more problems than it solves.
