I am not a developer, but it is my understanding that latex reads the saved file when it compiles the dvi. I would expect it to be necessary to save your buffer to disk with :w in order to compile it into a new dvi. Personally, I like this design choice since it forces me to save my work frequently.
I do not know about the other issue.
