The possibilities are only limited by your imagination.  If you can think it up - it can be done by a good home automation system.  Some example are listed below:

Path Lighting
Unsetting the alarm triggers a path of lights from the garage to the kitchen and hallways.

Access Control
Release the front door for the plumber - from anywhere in the world, even the supermarket.

Goodnight
Press this button to shut off all the lights in the house - including the ones under the stairs that the kids usually leave on for weeks at a time.

Towel Rail Control
The heated towel rails are switched off in the middle of all weekdays conserving energy.

Peripheral Communication 
The value of your stocks can be represented with coloured under tile lights in the hallway, red for good, blue for better.

HVAC Control
The heating system can be set back when the alarm is set, if it remains set for 3 days (or a vacation button is pressed) the heating will shut off all together.

Mail Call 
A chime sounds in the house when a package is delivered to the mailbox

Set the Scene
Use home automation to preset lighting scenes - for example dining mode, tv mode, art mode & bright.  Recall these presets at any time. 

AV Control
Gain control of the most complicated AV system with home automation - how about buttons that say SATTELITE, DVD and OFF - it doesn't get any simpler!

Louvre control
Use a Home Automation system to open louvres when the temperature gets high, setting the alarm will close them again automatically for you.

As mentioned - if you can think it up - a good home automation system and systems integration company will make it reality for you.
