There is not that much new in 5.1 from the newbie point of view:

I’d say it’s only worth if you are planning to use more UR features (there are many many, one of the most customisable soft of this sort, IMO).

For your questions, you can easily rename ... F2
If the pdf doc already has a name, UR can automatically name the item, select option|import more|“use document title for item if available”
You can also “program” item title automatically based on item attributes, e.g. based on date, author, title ... check UR help for example

For all your UR questions, the best is to post it to http://www.kinook.com/Forum/forumdisplay.php?forumid=22
