Appropriate uses of FormsPublisher?

System

DevNetters -
While running TeamSite for several years at our shop, we've never rolled out FormsPublisher - instead we're using the repository, workflow and OpenDeploy capabilities heavily to augment other templating / development tools. For us, it's worked out well.

Now, we've got a few interesting scenarios that we're looking at FormsPublisher at helping solve. The biggest one is probably to get some experience with it in case we implement SitePublisher / LiveSite.

But there're some other, less obvious possibilities. Here's one:

We've been approached by a group that saw a demo involving FormsPublisher and is thinking that maybe it could be used to create and maintain a set of application error messages that involve information on country, region, language, devices and sites.

Giving it some thought, I've come to the conclusion that this is -not- a good match of tool to requirement. This seems like an application that sits on top of a relational database so that you can call up the data by any of data types and manage it. Doing it with FormsPublisher seems like it would restrict functionality and possibly introduce a lot of data duplication.

This got me to thinking further about when -is- it appropriate to use FormsPublisher for something beyond web page creation and maintenance? Has you got some thoughts or examples? Dig deep!

Thanks!
