Errors in general. I miss errors all the time, because the message goes
away too quickly. Or I sit there for second after second, waiting for
several seconds each for error after error to disappear after I've read
it. It would be hard to design something to be more annoying.

Errors should just appear in a separate window, not interrupting
normal progress, with a "hotkey" of some sort, not used elsewhere, to
acknowledge them.
