This should allow for displaying styled text for the various UI elements of the 
charts.

My use case for this is to be able to change the color of the labels when the 
chart goes negative.  But supporting styled text is a very simple way of 
allowing all kinds of custom formatting with almost no effort on the library's 
part.

I don't understand the advantage of doing this. Can you please provide an 
example?

As I mentioned -- it allows you to displayed styled text, using, for example a 
SpannedString.  SpannedString is not a String, but a CharSequence.
