It opens doors which were, until now, closed to the Fog Creek people. I bet this was said a ton:
"I like their tools, but does it support git?"
Now, the answer is: "Yes, it does."
I'd say that's a tad more than a "cute feature".

So, still no money from me, unfortunately.
I guess you could just not use the feature and only use git clients. Who cares if the redundant hg clone they keep on their end gets out of sync.
Fog Creek's emphasis on how they achieved git support steered the discussion to be about the value of git/hg interoperability, rather than the value of Kiln for corporate developers. And it seems like the consensus is that git/hg interoperability is, at best, a nice-to-have.
