Do I understand correctly that such a document is rather an abstract
concept, like e.g. the result of a pipeline?
I mean, there would be no Document.java?
Would the term "document" actually be used in the code?

About the references from one asset to another, would they be handled in
a centralized way by the java core, or would the assets do that
themselves (by xinclude, or by generating a link, ...)?

I'm just trying to understand your idea...
