The applications are rare and narrow, but I've saved a mistake of mine from wiping us by doing this.

This also works extremely well for getting rid of mistimed CoD's. Ever since I got splatted by a mistimed CoD on Nightbane, I've kept CoS handy for just this purpose. Hydross and tanking Leo have already proven to be scenarios where it's come in handy...really sucks when boss timers are off.
Edit: Oh gods...you're right, Fiola. And yet, this is the one fight that has stuck in my head where it would be a fantastic thing to use on. That whole post should go right into the 'Stupid things people do' thread. I guess the ability to use Exorcism on both demons and undead is where I got tripped up.
