We occasionally ask for that to make sure they are not just spammers.
This kind of filter was proved to be effective in a few cases already.

It's very interesting to gather that information, btw.
It could even serve to build the new user page on the wiki,
as I've seen Christian doing recently:
https://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&from=20160708083035

Even better, once the wiki moves to use the same credentials these new
users come asking a mantra for, as requested in this ticket:
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/165

We need more sysadmin volunteers, who's up to take some steps further ?
