I was trying to actually use this new feature today, and ran into a
little bug in nodeFunctionscan.c that prevented it from actually working.
For anonymous composite types, ExecInitFunctionScan builds the tuple
description using:
tupdesc = BuildDescForRelation(coldeflist);
But BuildDescForRelation leaves initializes the tupdesc like this:
desc = CreateTemplateTupleDesc(natts, UNDEFOID);
The UNDEFOID later causes an assertion failure in heap_formtuple when
you try to use the tupdesc to build a tuple.
Attached is a very small patch to fix.

After beta starts I'll work on migrating this to the sgml docs.
