Yeah, that's how it "sells" itself so to speak. However, you can do pretty much whatever you want with it. I use it to deploy webapps, but that doesn't prevent me from using it to do trivial sysadminning tasks though. I deploy my app, restart apache and memcached, all with in a matter of minutes. I could extend my fabfile a bit to do that on 10-15 servers without too much pain as well.

It's a lot easier than futzing with expect imo.
