If you don't re-dish, the mounting face will be 40mm off centre, which gives a 41.6mm chainline with a ⅛" bolt-on sprocket. If you want a much wider chainline, e.g. to match and MTB chainset, it's worth moving the whole hub sideways as you can then have a stronger dishless wheel, see my tandem for an example.
