It could mean at least 3 different feelings :

1. Reflection about a possible solution : "Why don�t we try to do this after all ?"

2. Surprise about such an idea : "Well, why not ? Let�s try !"

3. Cynism or anger : "Why are we supposed to do this ?"

It all depends on the context.

That�s my opinion of course.
