I disagree.
A usecase is needed to know what actually needs to be created and who is the 
target audience.  Not being able to come up with a relevant usecase will 
never make me do any work as its probably irrelevant as soon as its finished. 
(the solution waiting for a problem) and only if there is a good usecase will 
the person who does the work know what to implement as a requirements 
document stems from usecases. Meaning its a good way to avoid the technology 
being totally different then what the proposal was aiming for.
