LDOC in broadcasted URl string

We are testing the broadcasting functionality and I have a question regarding broadcasting a link option via email.

When we broadcast, we get a string such as the following:

http://db1.xxxxxxxx.com:8100/sap/bw/BEx?CMD=LDOC&TEMPLATE_ID=ZSTANDARD_WITH_BROADCASTING&BOOKMARK_ID=3YO20K46BUVSSVXZHPTP0JEWB&VAR_NAME_1=0P_FYEAR&VAR_NAME_2=0P_PER3&VAR_NAME_3=ZA_PCNM&VAR_NAME_4=0P_CURRT&VAR_NAME_5=0S_MAT&VAR_NAME_6=0S_PLANT&VAR_NAME_7=0S_COCD&VAR_VALUE_EXT_1=2005&VAR_VALUE_EXT_2=1&VAR_VALUE_EXT_4=B0

I have noticed that when i send this link and someone runs it, it does not display the exact navigational status as what I expected (what i was viewing). Howevr, if I remove the "CMD=LDOC" code and re-send, it does what I would expect (i.e. all filters and drilldowns are perfectly presented, as expected).

What does the LDOC command really do here and what would be downside of omitting from this URL string?
