I was just thinking about that. The current document and the current 
space should not be part of the DAB, but of the context. So I change my 
vote to -1 for adding it to the DAB, +1 for adding it to the 
ExecutionContext. The Request is another good candidate, but not all 
requests will point to a document, and it will require more code, since 
the request has several implementations.
