Ok, i did not see it mentioned, but i scanned the list of change only briefly, so i probably missed it.

I think that views, procedures and triggers are all major leaps ahead. The information schema too is a major improvement but it still needs some crucial elements in my opinion: PARAMETERS for ROUTINES (already recognized as necessary), REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS (also recognized) would be nice, but when you really need that data, you can work around it using just TABLE_CONSTRAINTS.
What i think really is indispensible, is some equivalent of oracle's DBA_DEPEDENCIES view. ISO 9075 also provides such functionality, dispersed over (sorry no ref at my fingers now, mybe wrong names) VIEW_TABLE_USAGE and PROCEDURE_COLUMNS and maybe some others.
Well i could go on and on about it, and I will, but not here ;-).

CU!
