I just found that it made reading the documentation rather daunting for what should be a pretty easy-to-understand library.  Probably as people start using the library you'll see that most people use one set or another and you'll be able to adjust the docs to say "you'll probably want to do this, but there are a couple other ways to do it."  

Maybe it's just a case for a quick-start tutorial.  (It surprises me to hear myself saying that.)
