It's a common usage pattern for me when doing sysadmin tasks.
For instance, I'll be looking for something in a config file, like this:
# grep foo /etc/apache/httpd.conf
I find that that's what I'm looking for, and I type
# emacs M-.
which will insert the previous parameter (i.e., the path name), and I
edit away. Starting Emacs without a parameter would require me to type
the file name path again, which is slower.
