This can be helpful if the GUI is locked up. How do you intend to logout when the keyboard and mouse don't respond?

If you can ssh in from another computer or your jailbroken iPhone you can restart the GUI WITHOUT rebooting.

When my GUI has died but I can still SSH in, I _want_ to reboot the whole system so I know there's no gremlins lurking. For this I use sudo reboot.
