Reminds me trying to add something to a Wiki... you spend 15 minutes
looking up how to make a bulletted list or some text bold....
frustrating to the point of not bothering.

Sentences in attributes aren't the nicest, much better as an element
somewhere, although for empty elements, where that documentation
element goes is not obvious.

<x:doc>Pointer to generated FO tree</x:doc>
<xsl:param name="fo_tree"/>

...works for me, if it were correctly coloured grey.
