I don't think working on the fuel pump had anything to do with it, there's nothing back there associated with the transmission.
Searching through the board it seems like there's a possibility it's the kickdown cable. Symptoms reported for problems associated with that cable do include slipping and improper shifting, and that if there's a cable failure the onset of symptoms is sudden. I'll have look into it further this week.
Oh, and a little icing on the cake, when checking the transmission fluid with the engine running I noticed a small crack in the plastic coolant overflow tank with a small stream of coolant spraying out. (Obviously whether I repair that depends on what happens with the transmission. It's always something!)
