I'm not sure this is very strong (external files only for bindings in text/html doesn't seem like a huge problem) but XBL2 can be supported inline in application/xhtml+xml, so presumably this isn't considered completely pointless. I can imagine this being handy during exploratory programming, or in cases where it's desirable to deliver as much as possible in a single resource so everything goes inline in the HTML.
