Careful with the claim of bugs, it might backfire as we wrote that code
together. ;)
Nevertheless I agree to favor Simple API.
It just took a little longer to understand that with 'merging with DOC
layer'  you meant 'deleting the DOC layer'.
The DOC layer is a superset in regard of functionality and especially
the tests should be reviewed if they might help us to archive a better
coverage.
In our first no-functionality-change release we should keep the doc
layer and mark/document that layer as deprecated.

How does the Simple API mark allow the user to access formatting that
are not part of a named style?
For instance, mark some text as bold or change the color.
