Seeing the video for the dimension tape in spotlight, I can see this little feature be very handy for quickly laying out windows and doors in architect. I know I would use it if I had a long wall that needed many equally spaced windows. I could quickly lay out the dimension tape in plan and set the markers to the intervals I wished to place many windows.
Currently, my process would be to draw a line and use "Drafting Aids" and "Line into Segments" to get layout points. I can see switching to using a dimension tape would allow for quickly adjusting the intervals if I wanted more or less windows equally spaced.
