What I dislike most, but that's not only related to Air applications but widely spread. Every update seems to require a complete download of the application. I noticed uninstalling several applications that frequently forced me to download large amounts of data several times a month. I would really love to have more people publish applications with a shared runtime ... unfortunately it the smaller PITA to repackage the Captive Runtime as to deal with the ranting of people about requiring Air ;-)
