We've had this discussion in the past (unfortunately I cannot find the mail 
thread again).

AFAIR this was my POV:
* A page is the whole UI associated with a URL: content + skin + panels + etc
* A document is the metadata about the entity represented by the URL. It's a 
non visual object.

For ex "Document Index" is thus valid if you consider not the visual thing but 
that it's an index about the metadata. "Document Information" is also very 
valid.

Thanks
