You might want to set ALLOW_EXTERNAL_FUNCTIONS to false,
see http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/using-xsl/embedding.html

and rather than trap uses of document() at the syntactic level  just use
a URI handler that doesn't allow things that you don't want to allow
(perhaps don't allow all uris, or only allow them into some secure
sandboxed directory, or whatever is appropriate)
