Use Case Background and Purpose

As a cluster, we're still refining the process we will use to approach capturing and documenting our use cases.

For now, we have a strawman broad outline of categories. Our hope is that this will grow to cover the breadth of Earth Science, including our variety of users and the entire data life cycle.

The use cases are intended to be characteristic of classes of scenarios, and needn't be a specific real-world case, but including realistic elements can help make the use case concrete for readers, and tying to real world type cases they can relate to.

The scope of a particular use case should be a reasonable scenario describing some aspect of preservation/stewardship of data. It can refer back to other cases to avoid replication.
