Well, I just got the new spec sheet for MacWrite Pro, and it looks like it
fulfills most of your needs (when it comes out).  It has, among other things,
"Easy-to-use tables to organize and communicate information visually", "editing
at any zoom level", "Text wrap around artwork", "Auto Save/Auto Backup", etc.,
etc.  And Claris is going to sell me MacWrite II at the student price (I think
$99), with a free upgrade to MacWrite Pro when it comes out.  Plus, it
obviously will conform to new Apple standards, and so it may be the thing for
you. 

BTW, I don't work for Claris, own stock in Claris, nor does Claris mow my lawn
for me.  I've just been investigating a Word Processer investment for myself,
and it looks like they definitely have the most bang for the buck.

Hope this helps!
