Maybe it is only me, but I typically have a large array of content that is 
updated over the course of a product life cycle, version of your own and 
other products being one.

The fact that I do build a generic build system, that handles "my type" of 
projects, even done outside my own organization and team, means that stuff 
like;
Company Names
Product or Project Names
Contact names and numbers.
URLs of many types.
Licensing references and inclusions.
and a bunch more I can recall just off-hand...

And having a list of 2 dozen "Macros" that you insert whereever you need, 
without having to worry how that is resolved is just great.

(I even have a build system that builds build systems for customers, in this 
fashion.)


Cheers
Niclas
