Of course, I could tell you this all day, and because I'm the CEO (who just exercised some stock options yesterday and ended up with ~$8 million)... but I think we should let John Nack, who's our Senior Photoshop Product Manager, tell us what's not as good as it should or could be.
He makes some pretty good points, and I know he's dying to incorporate these kinds of ideas into the next version of Photoshop (CS4). Unfortunately, that's still a long ways off.
But, here's the deal. Photoshop is basically our cornerstone desktop product, and has been for a really long time. It's used for so many different purposes that it's terribly difficult to expect the Photoshop guys to incorporate all of the features without overbloating the entire application (and if you ask almost anyone, they'll tell you the Team hasn't done too well at decreasing the bloat) with features that person won't use.
Does this mean we make it easier to add or remove features? Does it mean we spin off Photoshop into more Photoshop Family products than Photoshop and Photoshop Extended? We want to know from you what, well, you want. Comment on John's blog post with what you think.
If you use Photoshop or are at all interested, it's a really interseting read.

Breaking the product in a few more specialized products might help. The program by itself is a little Ram hungry, add a large image and it gets a bit slow.
