I'm running 238 on my 8900, and I just tried SMS from pretty much everywhere:
Home screen -- start to type name, scroll down to mobile number, hit context menu and select "SMS" - I get standard text entry screen.
Address book -- same deal -- start to type name to locate in phone book, hit context menu, etc, etc.
Unusual one -- new to 5.x? I'm in message list and highlight a message. Hit menu button and have option to compost SMS text -- I click and I get a pop up "Select SMS Contact" with a "To:" field below that. If I start typing in that field, a short list of matching names appears below and I can roll down and select one. Then a second "To:" field shows up, allowing me to add another name, etc. If I then click "ok" I'm taken to the SMS entry screen.
A bit obscure, but these all work for me so far...
