     Are there any guidelines as to what parts of English one should avoid
     using in documentation? 
     

There are some such guidlines.  See: 
 https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Documentation

                               If most (as you put it) contributors aren't
     native English speakers, doesn't that mean we should attempt to use a
     simpler vocabulary so users and contributors can read and understand
     things easier?

I think that is a good general policy.
