The automatic idle/away setting needs to go die in a fire. I write some bots that drive the Lync client through the trainwreck of a COM automation layer, and they are always going out to lunch because the client has silently overwritten the presence state that I'm explicitly publishing.

Subscriber limits are also a joke. Although I'd be happy to be able to add contacts to my list, or even at times, see the people that are already there. Turning off the integration with Outlook (because it does awful things, like locking your .pst/.ost files so you can't open Outlook and Lync at the same time...) seems to screw up all the contact list related stuff.
