I've just returned from holidays and have a million emails! (Not 
literally, thank goodness.)
So, to keep it brief, my opinion is that, if SLF4J is true to its 
intention "to serve as a /*simple*/ façade for various logging APIs", 
Markers would be outside the scope, as I believe they push the façade 
beyond "simple".

I don't want to be "the guy that made us drop Markers". :-)
I think Markers are a bit complex and hence beyond the stated goal of 
SLF4J, but their existence wouldn't cause me to stop providing SLF4J 
support for Simple Log.
If you dropped them, I would think that SLF4J was better for it, but I 
wouldn't think it is bad if they stay.
