Yes that would be useful.
It can be done already with the "donut" command which is basically a Pline (poly line) circle with a thickness.
But you need to dial in the outside and inside diameters, which is a bit clunky in my opinion.
It would be nice to simply create a circle, and /or make it a Pline and assign a width to it.

Haven't used it in years though as lineweight works on everything I need.
This has been possible for probably 25+ years.

Since 1985 as far as I recall.
applying thickness to a stipple hatch made my IBM XT run awfully slow....
