I'm not seeing any of those.

I think I heard one of the MacWorld editors blame this on "Lion's Autosave", but I've never experienced it myself.  The theory is that the skips occur during an autosave operation.  If this is the case, it may indicate that the application invoked -[NSDocument unblockUserInteraction] too early, before the "immutable snapshot" had been taken.  But that's just my wild speculation.  I've read the comments in NSDocument.h in the 10.7 SDK several times and still don't understand it completely.

It would be interesting to know what apps you are seeing this in, and whether or not they've implemented Autosave In Place and/or asynchronous saving.  The latter may be difficult to determine, unless you happen to have the source code ;)
