1. Using it as a prototyping language for information extraction and
NLP applications.
2. Using it to replace Python for data munging.
3. Using it to provide a REPL into a large IE system that is written in Java.
My hope is to, in the future, use it as an implementation language in
the apps we're working on, in addition to Java. Unfortunately only a
few of us speak Lisp, so wide adoption is difficult (we have enough
problems finding competent Java developers!)

Better error messages, if possible. However, I have yet to come across
a case where I could suss what was going wrong from the messages the
current release emits.
The documentation is pretty good, but I've found myself digging around
for things and trying to look things up when reading other people's
code but not having luck picking apart some of the reader shortcuts.
