If the same mesh is rendered many times in a row using the same shaders, the current behaviour would still call gl.bindBuffer, gl.enableVertexAttribArray and gl.vertexAttribPointer for the same mesh. These extra calls could be potentially avoided.
This should improve the performance of 2D games with many sprites, that are rendered using the same quad mesh, the same shaders, but different uniforms. This should also improve the rendering of scenes like this http://unsoundscapes.com/elm-physics/examples/boxes/
