Well, if you think from a standpoint that you're doing it from within your own computers... What about computers that have restricted access to certain filetypes and such (like schools or something of the sort). I know that it can be argued that "Then you shouldn't be doing it there in the first place.", but I'm just taking a stab at the idea, since I don't know how many people learned their programming skills by messing around (nothing of misdemeanor, though) with the computers at school, like I have done before.
I'm sure many people like myself who didn't have a computer at home or were unable to use their home computer for programming learned to get around their school or library computers to work on their programming.

It's similar to how I've seen people struggle back then when the school computers have Office versions that uses the XML filetypes (*.docx, *.pptx, *.xlsx), and their home computers are using the older ones, and usually the schools won't allow download or installing of programs (for good reason), so people would tend to look for an online solution.
Indeed, and those often are good solutions. That's more a one-time solution mechanism, though, whereas this would be for a tool with repeated use.
