Based on my experience working with SharePoint 2010, here are some of the features missing in SharePoint 2010:
- Generic Full Trust Proxy to call external Web Services (both SOAP and RESTful Services) from Sandboxed Solutions
- Drag and drop support for Workflow activities in SharePoint Designer
- Ability to bind to WCF RESTFul/WCF Data Services via BCS (Business Connectivity Services) in SharePoint Designer
- Ability to bind to Oracle databases via BCS (Business Connectivity Services) in SharePoint Designer (You can do this using Lightning Tools BCS Meta Man though: http://lightningtools.com/bcs/bcs-meta-man.aspx)
- Ability to develop using .Net Framework v. 4.0
- Ability to support native SAML 2.0 Tokens (However, it looks like WIF will soon support SAML 2.0: http://connect.microsoft.com/site1168/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=36088)
- Ability to support AND-based Claims for Security "Lives in USA AND lives in Michigan"
- Ability to support OpenSSO and similar solutions for STS Integration
- Ability to use Visual Studio 2010 to develop code behind for InfoPath Forms
- Ability to develop InfoPath Forms with .Net 3.5 or .Net 4.0 (currently restricted to .Net 2.0)
- Ability to easily Unit Test InfoPath Forms that contain code-behind
- Ability to use AJAX Server Controls in Sandboxed Solutions
- Ability to natively configure SMTP (such as for GMail SMTP) without relying on an external SMTP engine such as IIS
- Run security auditing reports out-of-the-box (without 3rd party tools)
- Support Excel Spreadsheet view without use of an ActiveX Control (thereby forcing usage of Internet Explorer for this feature)
