I'm currently working on a game[0] similar to Untrusted[1] and I had to use bind (among other techniques like variable shadowing) in order to "sandbox" player provided code from interfering with other game objects or accessing the global scope (obviously there's no perfect sandbox, but it at least it makes it more difficult for players to do naughty things). Bind is useful because you can control the meaning of "this" when evaluating user-provided code, and I use it to deny player access to the parent scope by calling bind(undefined).
