In a project I was working on I was downloading image data via XHR in a Web Worker and then encoding it into a data: URI. (I say 'was' because I have since stopped doing it in a worker, for separate reasons, but there you go...)

I could imagine you might have, for example, a web-based email client which might want to encode a multipart message before sending it, all the background in a worker.
