I have several issues with the new labelling engine. - I can only set an angle if I also set x and y coordinates (which I have to artificially add as fields to my data, since they are only in the geometry initially) - the labels aren't placed precisely where they should be - and, finally, as I noted just now, I can't create upside-down labels, as I have described in http://hub.qgis.org/issues/5593 I'd propose the new labelling engine is worked over. I have seen others complain that it doesn't do as they expect. I can't use it for the reasons given above, so I'd have a hard time if the old engine was removed.
