I've added 

  Note

  A p:document always reads from the specified URI. In the context of
  a p:input, this seems perfectly natural. In the context of a
  p:output, this may seem a little asymmetrical. Putting a p:document
  in a p:output causes the pipeline to read from the specified URI and
  provide that document as an output on that port.

  Use p:store to store the results that appear on a p:output.

To 5.13 p:document. Please let us know if you don't think that's sufficient.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
