No, they aren't available in the beta yet. You can, however have 1.9 and 2.0 installed. Then all you need to do is load 1.9 and make your settings changes (this includes fonts and running indicators as well) then unload 1.9 and restart 2.0. Your settings will be applied to the beta version.
No word yet on when these functions will be available on the new version.
Edit: Not sure about the flyout menus, I went back to using stacks docklets.
