The way I always handle this type of thing is I use the brand new version for new construction, but don't port my old-version-written docs to the new version til the new version is production quality and has gotten some bug shakeouts. If I want to test the new version on an old document, I test it on a *copy* of the old document. A couple versions I didn't handle this way because I needed the new versions features right away. This includes the version that brought us character styles, which I'd been dying for for years, and the version that brought us outline mode, which is darned useful.
