Auto rotate should be fixed... If you go back to the home screen does it still stay in landscape?
You should not copy the data.img over - please try to rename it (don't need to delete...) and let it create another one (assuming you have the space on your card!). See if that fixes your auto-rotate issue.
No clue on Swype... that's why I have a physical keyboard! You don't like yours?
. I never got the hang of swype, I was always wayyyyy faster on the physical kbd.
As for the software keyboard, it certainly is fixed for me, and the guy who is building these system images has a RAPH - not an 800, but that shouldn't matter for the soft kbd sizing. So can you provide a particular situation or screenshot of the soft keyboard not being sized correctly...?
Power collapse is almost completely up to the kernel - granted there are some userland pieces responsible, but most is up to the kernel.
