My expereince with use cases (with a Java-based
product) is that I have used use cases as starting
point.

Like John says, you dont directly use them in your
documents. However, well written use cases give you an
idea about
- how a feature will be created (what you can do and
wont do)
- the way it would look (helps you figure out what you
would need to document)
- Notes, tips, warning, related features - all these
go a long way in helping you figure out what exactly
you need to write.

I have helped the UI design team with creating dialogs
and warnings, and found that use cases, if written
well and followed/used, can be really effectively
tools.

My two cents :)
