On Plesk for Linux mod_status is disabled on upgrades to improve Apache security. This is a one-time operation that occurs during an upgrade. You can manually enable mod_status later if needed.
Getting to the basics of what Plesk is, think about Plesk as a platform that fits on top of an operating system and its services so Plesk doesn't "ship" with any particular PHP version (PHP is installed from the repository of the OS vendor thus what your OS is provisioned with determines what Plesk uses when it is installed).
This isn't a limitation of Plesk 12 as you can install/run multiple PHP versions (if you're looking to offer hosted sites multiple versions of PHP) by using the official Plesk documentation or by way of Atomic's PHP Panda approach. The official Plesk 12 release notes indicate official support for PHP 4.x-5.x (including 5.4).
Hopefully this helps point you in the right direction!
Correct! Just be careful when working with a production server (ideally either upgrade or add multiple PHP versions as you see fit before deploying live websites). It's also might be advisable to ensure that whatever you do is compatible with Plesk (see the itemized list at http://download1.parallels.com/Ples....0-for-linux-installation-upgrade-info.html#4).
