I included the dev list to help document this conversation. Go ahead and add a parameter to the rest API for the source map.
The documentation should be in two places. First let's keep the wiki up today with the changes you have made. Also the final user documentation should be on the VXQuery website. Under the VXQuery maven project, you will find a src/site folder where all the xml and apt files are stored to produce the website. I think we probably need a new page that defines and shows examples like the wiki. The site has documentation on how to build the site.
