I see it as something to make Quick Draw worthwhile as a feat choice. If you want to shoot that crossbow again next round, you either have to have another crossbow on you to Quickdraw, or you have to spend a Move Action to pick up the one you droped. Then, to Quick Draw another longsword to take an AoO (that you don't even have a guarantee of - who moves next to someone to drink a potion?), you have to have yet another longsword on you to Quick Draw.  To pull this maneuver off for two rounds, you have to have two bows and two longswords on your person. For three rounds, three of both! The only plausable way to use this "exploit" is to, say, fire with Manyshot, Quick Draw a Longsword, then Move into melee range so maybe the enemy will perform some action to give you an AoO. Which nets you what really? Your benefit of using a ranged weapon is gone because now the enemy can take a Full Attack against you. I just don't see the real benefit of pulling out a melee weapon after firing your bow.</blockquote>
