Hello Georg, it sounds indeed like an issue of the Simple API.
The best you can do, is to open an issue and most important provide your use case as source code that may become a later regression test, so someone can jump start to easily debug your scenario in general and the delete method in special. Look at the existing tests, the class org.odftoolkit.simple.text.SpanTest looks most suitable to me. PS: Only speaking for myself, but if there is an existing test, I am much more motivated to invest some time to debug. Otherwise we might be cross talking and the set up eats all my spare time..
