Hm, maybe ;)
The reason for DocInfo is simple - we need access to various
document-wide classes from various other classes, and storing a lot of
pointers in each class is too complicated and unnecessary. Besides, we
cannot really have singletons - ValueParser and friends are no longer
singletons, as you can see. The reason for this is that we could have
multiple documents opened at once, each using a different locale - and
I really dount that there is other sane way out ( passing locale
pointers to each call is not a sane way ;) )

I hope that this is a bit more clear now :) I would have posted
something about this over to koffice-devel, but I think that it's not
such a big change - it's more of a polishment stuff...
