I think the main reason why people do it is to utilise your full body weight to stem agains the pedals and thus generate 'easier' peddling motions when it gets really hard and/or to accelerate from standing faster.
I did it plenty of times when I was a kid. But nowadays I feel insecure as soon as my ass leaves the saddle, so I'd rather not try it.
