Had absolutely no idea  that Google Docs new document editor is missing some key functionality:

The problem with the new editor is that it lacks many features that were previously available in Google Docs: translation, editing CSS and HTML, document settings, custom dictionary, comparing revisions etc. These features will probably be added to the new editor, but users expect to find new features in a major update, not missing features.

Another issue is that most documents will open in the old editor, while recent documents will open in the new editor. Google will offer an option to migrate the existing documents to the new format, but users shouldnt have to deal with converting between formats.

It’s going to be a kick in the pants to a lot of people who will be migrated to the new editor.
