However, the document says the register "1 always hold the text deleted

I cannot reproduce this on Vim 7.4.
Just to make sure we are all on the same page, this is what I did:
Start Vim with vim -Nu NONE.
On the opening bracket of "one (two) three", press d%.
Now all three registers " 1 - contain "(two)".
I tried a few of the other operators mentioned, they also work correctly.
:s/operators/motions/
I used an HTML file, and I pressed d% on an <a> tag shorter than a line.
Part of both <a> and </a> tags, and the intervening text, were deleted, but
:reg showed old stuff in register 1. Then I did the same thing on a <div>
spanning several lines, and in this case the deleted text appeared in
register 1 as listed by :reg.
As ZyX mentioned, matchit remaps %. Please use vim -Nu NONE to test.
Ah, right. With -Nu NONE, and testing on matched ( ) parentheses, the
deleted text does appear in register 1. But not with -Nu NORC, since I
have a $VIM/vimfiles/plugin/matchit.vim containing only the line
runtime macros/matchit.vim
So I think that the OP was also using matchit, in which case he would
not be using the % movement "as defined in Vim" anymore than I did the
first time.
I got the same results (no change in reg. 1) with v%d on an object shorter
than a line.
This is expected, the exception mentioned in the help does not apply to
operators in Visual mode. See :h "0.
Best regards,
Tony.
