Could you provide some steps to reproduce the behavior?
Is this typed text, or text pasted from a non-Word document pasted in?
What font are you using and what view are you working in.

"Could you provide some steps to reproduce the behavior?"
Isn't MS supposed to be telling US where these behaviors are? Didn't
someone test this before releasing it? Why to users have to point out the
problems?
But I guess if there is no regard for the amount of lost productivity caused
by someone in MS not having anything better to do than completely change the
UI, there certainly is no interest in telling customers how the new UI
actually works (when it does).

Thank you for the additional information. When you mention that it's working in two parts but not the third, can you explain how
you're creating or tracking separate 'parts'?
Is the document all just text?
The 'Words:nn' choice on the status bar does gray out as you're typing and then 'catches up' during pauses, and this can sometimes
happen on first selection of partial document text as well, more so if you have all of the proofing selections turned on for
spelling/grammar/etc 'as you type'.

On the keyboard shortcuts you mentioned, you may find that many of the old version ones still work <g> as do the new ones.
Old ones that don't always work were often on the old File menu (now Office button menu)
And said:where properties moved to
Office Button=>Prepare=>Properties so (Alt, F, E, P) works to get you to the 'basic' properties, but the old (Alt, F, I) will
now take you to the 'Office Center' (Word 2007 Options) dialog
You can right click on the Crop tool icon to add-it to the Quick access toolbar,
If you're handy with VBA (which
I'm not <g>, it can probably also be added to the right click menu for pictures as well.
There are a number of different spreadsheets, by example tools and add-ins available that you may find helpful.

Some folks prefer to work with a minimzed ribbon (ctrl+F1 or double click on a ribbon tab)

In Windows Explorer you might want to check to see what file types are associated with the .HX_ series of file types.
I don't
recall if running Office diagnostics from
Office Button=>Word Options=>Resources
resets those for the CLView.exe help viewer
You may want to take a look at the http://toolbartoggle.com add-in. It supports a floating toolbar (actually task pane) for some
features.
I'm not sure what warning you're getting regarding old keystrokes (I'll probably remember once I've had coffee on this Monday
morning <g>).
The 'Custom properties' would be one tab in the older Word 2003 properties dialog? That's a dialog I mentioned in the previous
message that could be assigned a custom keyboard shortcut to be able to pop it up, although not to a specific tab in the dialog .
As you can access the object model from C# it would be possible to customize the right click context menus that way, but that would
be something one of the macro maven/programming folks who post here to address for you
