Anyone using the new Email Message standard object? Other than with Case?

Hi All.

I'm excited about the new EMail object to replace email activities as tasks. My question is about how to use it to send emails? Is this the purpose? How do I get started? 

Has anyone seen any examples? Or would you like to share? 

I see its a Master/Detail child record of Case. Is the only use for sending emails from Case? I would like to use it from Lead and Opportunity (actually Assets also, but larger story).  Am I barking up the wrong tree? Looking at the release notes, it appears the releated list will allow this.

Is there a standard form I can use or do I need to build a custom (standard SF, not lightning) VF page?

TIA.
John.
