The honest answer is that ATM Android tiled rendering (the thing that
provides document content) is broken on master, and nobody had time to
fix it up. All the mentioned features only make sense if the core of the
app works, and currently it doesn't.

The hope is that there is still time till the 6.0 release to fix it; but
for now best not to advertise those features, as they're not really
visible (yet).

Regards,

Miklos
