How often do you need cryptographically secure random floats? (I'm genuinely interested in the use cases.)

I don't think it would be a common use-case when creating new software, but when patching legacy software to use better RNGs it's not unheard of for them to be using older RNGs that return a float between 0 and 1 (drand48 as an example).
