Bug fixes in 2007?

Have they fixed any of the annoying bugs in 2007 yet? Such as:
Snapping to the center of the slide after any action while zoomed in.
Example: you zoom to the corner of an object, select it, micro nudge it and
you're snapped back to the center of the slide. You adjust the sliders to
reframe the corner of the object and repeat. Multiple times.
and
Drawing in freeform, you hold down the shift key, no constrained line.

There are others, these are just issues I'm dealing with today.

These are indeed incredibly annoying, but unfortunately, SP1 for Office 2007
does not address them.

Are we sure these bugs are being logged and evaluated? For obvious bugs,
looks like they were missed first time around.

unfortunately the first bug is still there. Not sure the second in a bug but
it still happens.

I'd still get SP1 installed though.

Unless you need to export images.

SP1 giveth (bugs) as it taketh away (bugs)

I know that MS is aware of these two particular bugs, yes.
