Yes, there are

The content field for fields cannot be expanded, Yikes.. I used to do a lot of editing inside the inspector… now you have to unlock the field, direct edit and lock again.

Twice yesterday I used the selection tool clicked on an object right click to inspect and LC crashed

Script error dialog opens empty. 

Still have peculiar behavior in the custom props dialog. If you don't handle it just perfectly… the prop you entered disappears… have yet to figure a recipe there.

Custom props also not resizeable… what If you have a lot of date in the custom prop?

It would be great if there was some on board "quick feedback" feature… as right now I don't have to detail all of these in the bug tracker.
