Just what you said. It flushes bacteria, cleans, and keeps the tissue moist. If you notice a change in color, texture, consistency, odor or heaviness of flow it could be the sign of a yeast or bacterial infection or of an STD. Some women have different mucus at different times of their cycles.

There are times when most young women will experience a slight discharge of what looks like mucus. This can occur after urination, at certain times in the menstrual cycle; it is generally clear, and stringy, as you described, and such a vaginal discharge is generally quite harmless. However, if you have a vaginal discharge that is yellowish or greenish in color, or if it has a strong odor, it may be the sign of an infection. A doctor can easily diagnose and treat it with antibiotics.
