The problem is that menu keys are bound at startup time, and these menu 
items actually have a third title at that time, which for the two 
problematic items are:
    Reformat Paragraph/Selection
    Unwrap Paragraph/Selection

This is my general convention, e.g. for show/hide items the initial 
title is “Show/Hide Something” etc.

You can open MainMenu.nib under “Show Package Contents” -> 
Contents/Resources/English.lproj to see the state of the menu at 
loading time.

So if you use the titles above, it will work (just tested).
