Correct, and also attachments of pages are also saved in the document
folder. So one folder is for things that really are part of the 
notebook, while the other is a convenient root to link from. I first 
introduced the document root with the idea in mind this would be usefull 
e.g. when exporting html for a website.

I think for future versions what is now the document folder will be 
called something like the attachment folder while the document root will 
be renamed to document folder.
