Only trouble I have with "Content" is that is sounds like the document
formatting doesn't have to be free.

"You can study the content for any purpose" does not imply that you can
study the DocBook markup (ignoring the text) to learn how to write your own
manual.

Using the word "Content" will lead to the idea that license X is a "free
documentation" license, but not a "free document" license.
