Currently, the FRF does not support this. Could it? Sure. I've added several other folders to that list in the past. We have not included it because it seemed bad for the customers. They might create a file in your app and then be unable to email to someone or use some other app with the file. Thus the documents folder (as well as other places like the desktop) are currently not covered by the FRF.
If you can explain the scenario of how it is needed, we (well, probably I) can consider adding in support into the FRF.

Oh, another thought.
The FRF can handle redirection of a file in the documents folder by using relative path within the config.json instead of KnownFolderId.
