This is especially important in some cases where you have local shell wrappers around commands that execute on a remote server with SSH.

I do this for my email, for example, where the actual programs for dealing with my email sits on a server, but on each host I have shell scripts with the same name as the original program, except all they do is SSH to the server and run the actual program there. When navigating a GUI that runs these shell wrappers, you get a lot of opening and closing of SSH sessions very quickly.
