Generally I just use it for pulling. Because of the arrow flight time you can shoot an arrow and get out of LoS before you engage which is nice for casters. The range is also better than most spells, so it can speed up the pulls or make you competitive for certain FTE races.
As for bow kiting, it's a legit strategy. You can kill shit outdoors way above your level for minimal mana. Send pet, DoT it up and weave in bow shots. The weighted axe makes the bow shots very reasonable.
