Doesn't the display connect directly onto the Raspberry Pi?
It was designed for the A/B, so the connector is a little shorter, but yes I thought it would just plug on.

Yeah. I though the first 26 pins of the new connectors on the + series have the same pinouts as the original (Rev 2) boards.

When http://www.element14.com/community/people/awesometechkid answers, we'll find out what his concern was.
Hopefully it's something that wasn't in the Adafruit references .....

yes they are essentially you have the same 26+14 more on the end....Dont have them in your board don't worry about them just plug in the ones you have
.
The only PITA here is if you have a board that is so close to the RPI that they needed to make cut outs for the connectors which now have moved on the A+/B+meaning the cut outs are in the wrong place ... The GPIO connector however is fine just use the first 26!
