1. Are you using Ember.computed's array methods? I tend to go with intermediately calculated arrays which I then union/diff/whatever is necessary for filters. It is also significantly faster than function-defined computed properties. The only bug I know of for this functionality was fixed in the 1.5 branch by @hjdivad.

This was a single value (e.g. 'selectedItem') populated by a Ember.Select view/component. After changing the selection a number of times, all things watching 'selectedItem' completely stop firing off (until a page refresh). No idea why.

There is going to be some future work on some of the form elements. They're really not quite where they need to be.
