How about these:
1. power down missing from the menu unless you hols down alt.
2. The handling of workspace is between clumsy to onsure. For example
when I click on Activities I currently see 4 workplaces displayed all
empty . Where did they come from and how do I get rid of them.
3. On Activity-> Applications  My screen is filled with tens of icons
obscuring what I am working on. Most of the time I have to go second
step and click on a subcategory of Applications to find the one I want
or I can type the application name if I can remember exactly what it is
called. The is tedious, There is nothing as convenient as being able to
place applications I use most often in a panel at the top or bottom of
the screen. I know you can put Icons down the left side of the screen
but these take up to much room.
We could go on endlessly. I know there are addons you can install to
make things friendly. But why are they not part of the basic package. To
install  a trash can on the screen and to arrange that mounted temporary
devices such as CDs and usb sticks produce icons on the screen  takes a
special rpm to be installed. Tell me anyone who would want a system that
you could not tell if a CD or usb stick is present by seeing an icon on
the screen. And you respond Windows users.  But we want to be better
than that.
