Are the document files are some kind of sysex files?  What do they do?
Oh - a quick search yields:

"SYX files are raw MIDI system exclusive files that can be loaded from
 a MIDI equipped PC or Macintosh computer."

So I'm presuming their bulk files sent to devices to set them up 
with new patches/sounds/whatever.

Presumably we don't want to import them - we just want to include them
in an RG project and say "load this .sysex when we load the document"
kind of thing or load this .sysex now?  They sound like a candidate for
the Studio alright -  do you ever want to send these during playback
(sequence them) or are they only ever really sent at initialisation?
