I just tried these operations in 2.8.2 and they are working for me in more-or-less the way I've always used them. There's sometimes more than one way to achieve a result in Gimp so that may be why your experience differs (or it could just be a bug/bugs). To create and fill a shape I use the selection or path editing tools to create an outline, stroke it and then the bucket-fill tool to fill it with a pattern or solid colour. For centred multi-line text I just use the text tool, click to place and enter the text. The floating (cairo) dialog does not give you the justification options but it's there in the tool options pane: http://www.errorists.org/stuff/gimp-2.8.2-fill-and-text.png If you turn single window mode off (Windows menu and uncheck Single-Window mode) it'll be in the bottom half of the floating toolbox window.
