Persistence is a big deal, but I can't help but feel a certain level of "meh" because my gut feeling is that persistence is a lot more useful in espionage and state actors than in the kind of business environments I deal with.
Maybe this is going to be the next big thing thrown into Metasploit so it can be easily used to make persistent something that's effective on a variety of systems with a variety of environments and data while still being subtle enough to avoid having the infection vector code make it into every AV package out there, but I doubt it.
To me the use of this kind of exploit feels like a very fine needle. Very fine needles are very very useful in a lot of specific situations, but very fine needles scattered haphazardly around the environment are a very different thing.
