I make games for Ludum Dare fairly frequently, and it'll be a nice feature, because a lot of people will refuse to download a game and only play web versions.

Other than that case, I agree. What's the point? Your page probably shouldn't be doing anything where it needs the GPU. What information is a page trying to present that a GPU is better at rendering than the CPU? Maybe very niche topics, but usually text is ideal.
