I use snapshots as "quick backup", as addition to full backups done by
Bacula. It much faster and easier to recover previous version of file
from snapshot than from backup software. Revert is not necessary.

 OpenSolaris guys use snapshots for safe system upgrade. With ability to
select rootfs from before upgrade at GRUB screen and boot into older
installation. Revert is crucial in case of wedged upgrade.
