Pending features in new GDocs document editor

The new Google Docs graduates | Monday, June 14, 2010
..... Beginning today and rolling out over the next couple of weeks, all new documents will be created using the new documents editor. Docs already created using the older editor will remain there. We will be sharing more information on how to move those documents to the new version soon.

Looking for these features to be maturely implemented before switching to new GDocs document editor.
  1. TOC (table of contents)
    • 6/w3) See it available but still so plain.
  2. Footnote and comment: new UI looks better, but it doesn't fit XGA screen yet.
    • Footnote is placed on the left and requires at least 1200-pixel wide to get displayed properly (horizontal scroll-bar can scroll right but not left!).  A reference is that currently netbook PCs standardise screen size to 1024x600.
  3. Default font and size: can be set to other than Arial-11pt?
  4. Table editing: rich features as previous version
  5. Web clipboard: the capability to paste table from spreadsheet.
  6. Support Thai language: currently it does not wrap text properly.
