While useful it needs a big red warning to potential leakers. If they were personally served documents (such as via email, while logged in, etc) there really isn't much that can be done to ascertain the safety of leaking it. It's not even safe if there are two or more leakers and they "compare notes" to try and "clean" something for release.
The watermark can even be contained in the wording itself (multiple versions of sentences, word choice etc stores the entropy). The only moderately safe thing to leak would be a pure text full paraphrasing of the material. But that wouldn't inspire much trust as a source.
