I get different behavior from what you describe, with Org-mode version 7.9.2 (release_7.9.2-948-gab17f9 @ /home/nick/elisp/org-mode/lisp/) and also going back to the version you mention below and also 7.9.2 for good measure: M-S-right behaves as you describe (it demotes the current subtree) but M-right demotes all the headings in the region (nb: *not* subtrees necessarily, unless the region encompasses the whole subtree). AFAICT, this has been the case for ever. Cursory examination of the code confirms that this is expected behavior and checking commit logs on org.el back to Dec. 11 did not unearth anything (but I am exhausted, so you should apply appropriate levels of salinity). So maybe I'm doing things wrong, but I cannot duplicate your results and I don't see any change in bahavior since 7.9.2. Perhaps you can try it again, perhaps somebody else can confirm (your story or my story, as the case might be).
