Personally I rarely change button configs for games that have native controller support.
But being able to browse and apply community created controller configs for games that don't have proper support all from the comfort of my couch is amazing.
I game on my living room TV in Big Picture Mode 99% of the time. Wouldn't be able to do that without that feature as troubleshooting controller issues would be much more of an hassle.
It solved a (for me) big weakness of the platform (limited controller-support for many games, having to rely on third-party programms for certain controllers) and evolved it into one of its biggest strength.
