Honestly I find one of the biggest missteps for me is that they started injecting UI into the web page itself.

I'm sure it reqires less work from the locally installed app (and lets them do away with it altogether, even), but it creates issues - it obscures UI elements in the page with a hard to dismiss overlay (no obvious clickable way to do it) that fits below webpage UI elements when it's heuristics identify it as an appropriate field.

edit: plus I regularly find that when I try to fill form fields in Safari and Firefox that selecting the appropriate login and hitting autofill does absolutely nothing.

Yes, I agree. It's a real pain in the ass. That and still not allowing to ignore localhost for password fields...
