That depends heavily on your trust model, document propagation risk and 
how valuable the documents themselves are.  I'd like to see your strategy 
for document protection and recovery from Google Docs for a just-laid-off 
employee.  I'd like to see you stop them from "sharing" a copy of the 
document with themselves at home...  While it's not easy to do, you *can* 
build an environment where a local office package keeps the documents in a 
reasonably controlled environment where employees can't e-mail them 
directly, dump them to removable media, etc.

Put the documents on a Web site accessible from anywhere on the planet 
with reusable credentials and you pretty-much kill the idea of document 
control at all, let alone keeping the honest people honest or a credential 
exposure from providing the whole farm instead of just a pig.
