Thanks for pointing that out David!
I got my example from an existing piece of code that needed measures
later on, so at that time it made sense to create the measure.
Nevertheless I'm hoping for some upgrade of the linear referencing
functions. Especially the option of offsetting along a line would be superb.

Tom,
You've got the right toolbox out, but you're doing a bit of

You can certainly do this using the Linear Referencing tools by either
using ST_Add_Measure and then using ST_LocateAlong (or
ST_Locate_Along_Measure pre 2.0) OR just use ST_Line_Interpolate_Point
along with ST_Length.
Examples of how to do this in a single step:
