Sure Pekka, I can add that.

This is a good suggestion to have the whole pipeline and properties documented along with
the exact usages. We may end with 2 properties almost doing similar work but needed due to
underlying hardware, but we can get that properly documented and defined. 

I will discuss with Harry and Ville as well to define this.
