There are dozens of bugs in the 3.0.0 front end and somewhat less in the
3.0.1.  

Among bugs in the 3.0.1 front end:  Complicated Headers and Footers
don't save correctly(I just discovered this one, so it may be up for
debate).  Copying and pasting graphics via the clipboard doesn't work
well if the notebook magnification is over 100%.  Some graphics formats
don't work well.  Some graphics formats don't rotate text properly.
Some graphics formats don't deal with special characters well.  Some
graphics commands require "invisible spaces" in between characters to
print properly.

There are also some kernel bugs dealing with integration.  This is an
ongoing discussion in the mathuser group.

One thing to realize is that the definition of a "bug" has to do with
your expectations.  If it is arguable that somebody, somewhere might
like the feature or if it is arguable that somebody other than wolfram
might have something to do with the feature, then the folks at wolfram
will often not consider it a bug at all.   --
