When I go to Documents > Manage Parts there's only one part ("Part I") listed, even though there are three staves in the document.
Halp.

The problem is not fixed ("Staff Attributes" still doesn't display any part name options and the part names do not display in the score or parts, though I was able to name them using the Documents > "Manage parts" dialogue), but I discovered something else: I had had a "group" defined (accidentally, I think). I removed the group. But the staff names still don't display and the "Staff Attributes" dialogue is still missing the upper section where you can name each part...

You don't name the staves in Staff Attributes. You do that in the Score Manager. (Main menu>Windows>Score Manager)
There, you can select each staff, give it a full and abbreviated name, change the sound, set the clef, change the transposition...
