All I meant was that the definition should point out that document order is independent of the l-to-r/r-to-l/top-to-bottom/bottom-to-top convention for the language in which the document is written... and/or drop the word "normally"... or provide an example in which the doc order is NOT top down, l-to-r.
I don't know; maybe this is a case of over-exactitude at the expense of clarity.
