Moving the mouse under program control would be useful in a help
system.  The program could have a button named "Show Me", which
the user could press while viewing help on a topic.  The program
would take over the mouse and show the user how the operation
is performed.

If keyboard input is required, the program could also put up the
keycaps window and show the simulated keyboard input this way.
