I found the following comparison on your Examples page :

Use the DSL API when:
    * You want your code to look like SQL
    * You want your IDE to help you with auto-completion (you will not
be able to write select .. order by .. where .. join or any of that
stuff)

Use the regular API when:
    * You want to create your query step-by-step, creating query parts
one-by-one
    * You need to assemble your query from various places, passing the
query around, adding new conditions and joins on the way

Why do you restrict the DSL API to a builder approach? It could easily
work also in incremental fashion.

The separation adds some unnecessary complexity.

I am just throwing some suggestions, because I have come across
similar design decisions.
