This is a great comment for how to actually do it, however, that's not my question.
Why would someone ever need to do this?
When I set up a new SQL server, I need to set the collation, and I've always left it as default. Why would I need to change this?

I should state, I know the reason for changing the collation on a specific db, however, why would I need to change it on the master db?
I can't think of a scenario that would require this.
