Thankyou for actually contributing a clear appraisal of that noise.

document(), when used, returns what is effectively another node-set, no
more, no less. 

It is an official part of the spec, a part which many real-world
developers have a need for, and will use when they choose. 
It can be used practically to achieve certain goals which cannot simply
be reached any other way (within the current spec).

I for one am keen on it. I'd rather have something that gets usable
results (Perlish or not, I still don't get that) than be told 'you caint
get thair from hayer, it's not environmentally friendly'.

... now if only more folk would IMPLIMENT it ...
