That did the trick !!

(whew)  nonetheless, i locally built 2.0.1 just now (from git), and it
was set to apply-at-cursor-only.
I expect that is the default, because the other is quite dangerous for
the casual user. What can happen is that they have a selection which is
off-screen, then they try to apply, say, a trill to the note at the
cursor and nothing happens, they think the command is broken. Later they
find a whole bunch of notes have trills on them.

But the root of your problem was you losing your preferences on upgrade.
I'll write up what I know about this, but what you can do to get them
back to delete ~/.denemo-2.0.1 and re-start Denemo. Ask to keep your
preferences, and it *should* keep them and remember them next time (if
you quit properly?). If not, file a bug report, and do the same again
but this time save your commands as your default command set via the
Command Center.
You *never* lose your personal prefs or shortcuts on upgrade, they are
just stored in old .denemo-x.x.x directories.

Thank god for that! (I mean, thank Richard ! :-)

by the way, the 2.0.1 binary doesn't seem to be compiled with jack support. (The one i built this morning works fine with jack, FWIW)
