I use the Creator transformer for creating test instances when helping other members on the forums. Almost always, I follow the Creator with an AttributeCreator to recreate the schema. It would be nice to define those additional attributes from within the Creator itself. Another use case would be when using the Creator for Initiator features on WorkspaceRunners and FeatureReaders.

This has already been possible for a few years, just right-click the 'Created' output bar (the blue area with the text, not the port arrow):
