The two use cases where this is likely to appear in the short term are: 1. web push - where an encrypted resource is created on a server by one entity and retrieved by another. The server doesn't get to see the contents. 2. blind caching - the same as in web push actually. An origin server uses an untrusted cache and wants to encrypt data so that the cache can't modify or view the content.
