Note this is nothing specific to cat or coreutils for that matter.
This applies to all programs and is specific to the terminal driver.
Now where info like this should be documented is an interesting question.
Perhaps coreutils should take some responsibility for documenting such things?

Anyway some info for what is happening here...
Note there is no "record" distinction here.
The Ctrl-d combo just means "end input". I.E. send pending input to the program.
When there is text on the line already this is sent, and usually (as cat does too)
the program will read() again looking for more input. If you send pending input
on an empty line, then the program will get zero bytes and usually quit.
You can see this with:

  strace -e read cat

Note the Ctrl-d combo can be changed in the terminal driver
using the slightly misnamed eof stty setting:

  $ stty -a | grep eof
  intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;

cheers,
Pádraig

Nothing so far, yes. No specific wording changes have been proposed, as far as I 
can see from <https://bugs.gnu.org/27136>. You can propose a wording change by 
sending us the output of "diff -u" or "git send-email" or something like that. 
It's OK if you don't have time to do that, as this is evidently low-priority.
