I agree with Randy, that there is no need for a limit on the number
of documents for a level 2 implementations (that shall implement
CreateJob/SendDocument). In fact, we should make it clear that
a conforming level 2 implementation shall accept multiple documents, one with
each SendDocument. The only error status codes we need is for the case of when
total size of the document data for the job as specified by site policy.
