Note that there is a difference between styling via annotation, and
using StyledText, at least in terms of the methods used to do so (the
result is not different, AFAIK). In Java, the former works as
expected, but the latter has some errors in the API (for instance,
insertStyledText() doesn't work properly, it's a bug in the API;
Python may not suffer from it). However, it is possible to apply
styles with annotations that are the same as styles you could apply
using StyledText and StyleType.

Until the StyledText stuff is fixed, annotations are the way to go.
However, I look forward to getting StyledText working, because it
means I won't have to track annotation ranges when my robot updates
the text!
