You can even add it to the priming bucket, if an ale needs more body. I'm thinking about that for my Bent Rod Rye. It has 6 oz. of dextrine malt, but it's not where I want it.

6 oz is a lot. I try to keep my MD usage below 1. I think it makes some brews too thick.
Dosn't it make the body of a beer thicker and the beer sweeter?

not sweeter (if it does I never noticed) I use it in beers that would normally ferment out to 1.009 or below to add body and mouth feel. or where you want more body but not necessarily more sweetness.
