"My first brush with mouse gestures on the Opera browser was an accident, but the ability to quickly move backward or forward in the browser history, open new windows, close tabs, and more without using the menus or moving the mouse toward the navigation toolbar won me over immediately. Nowadays, this feature is available in Firefox and Konqueror too, and you can even configure mouse gestures for GNOME and KDE desktop environments." More here.

While keyboard shortcuts are often nice and fast, if my hand isn't on the keyboard, a mouse gesture would make more sense.
For example if I'm using my Wacom tablet. I'm left handed but use mice right handed so I keep my right hand on the system mouse or the Wacom 'puck' and have the stylus in my right hand. In that situation, I don't want to bother with the keyboard.
