I really love my #9 brush, you can use it for applying a sheer wash of colour, and for blending as Nilufer said. I have 2 of these (the long handled one for at home and a short handled one for my planner) and I've been known to use it for powdering under the eye and around my nose to set my concealer, applying e/s as a highlighter on my cheekbones and to blend out any hard edges on my blusher. I think it's basically a blending brush but like I said above I've used it for lots of things in emergencies.
I like my #7, but I could live without it, but I don't think I could live without my #9.
IMHO the Stila #9 brush is a lot better than the MAC one (224?) that is similar, but I think that there is room for the MAC white haired versions in your collection too if you already have those.
