How GlassFish Can Be Better

How can GlassFish/Java EE be improved? Set up of the EJB timer service with a cluster is not intuitive.

Any particular features you are interested in seeing? Web based admin console can be overwhelming for newcomers.

Future plans with GlassFish/Java EE? Currently updating my Java EE with GlassFish book. Currently evaluating a migration to GlassFish 4.
