Well Corey is driving for two reason:
1) he understands now the maven deploy build lifecycle stuff
2) he reviewed GeoAPI 2.0 against the SLD 1.0 specification, and has 
volunteered to updated the interfaces for GeoAPI 2.1.

Justin currently GeoTools is method name compatible for the 
FeatureTypeStyle and friends, problem is those method names come from 
SLD 1.0.20 (a spec that was never published). So if you are going to go 
through and do the deprecation game we need to ....
0) ask what is happening with SLD 1.1 (four years and counting)
1) use method names from the SLD 1.0
2) allows style to be used on Object (rather then specify Feature or 
specify Graphic)
3) update only one of the Style packages in GeoAPI (the feature one?) 
and remove the other (the graphic one?)
4) and of course use GeoAPI Filter

The Style constructs use Filter and Expression in plenty of places.
You are also warned that to make a user interface based around the Style 
/ Filter / Expression structure we have added an event system similar to 
that used by EMF. I am pretty sure that GeoAPI would prefer to stick 
with standard bean property change events (ie they try to follow 
accepted practice).
