Mark,
I have found and worked with everything you have discussed with ease. I really do like the new interface coming from 8.x so I am in agreement with you regarding all the help and new wizards available to us.
Thanks for the inside info. Though I was already familier with what you are describing here, the info is useful to note for others out there.
