Somewhat limited amount of symbols and footprints, but also style 
inconsistencies are problematic for professional schematics. 
Symbol, library and footprint should be kept separate for scalability and 
their distribution should be handled transparently to the user (zipped 
together or something). Project cache must include everything needed for a 
design so that distributed projects don't have to take care about 
external libraries versioning. Current SVN seems to have problems in 
module caching that shows when expanding hierarchial project (copying a 
branch).
