I use Python mostly, and I was asked this in an interview question (shortly after being asked if I could enumerate the differences between 2.6 and 3, when I said 'quite frankly no, I'm building a real world app and focused entirely on 2.6 at the moment since migrating to 3 isn't an option').

I was actually working closely with Django so ended up listing things I disliked about Django rather than Python itself. I think one of the easier ways to answer would've been with a Javascript/C/ML/Lisp hat on - was chatting to someone at the weekend who was totally against the space-indentation, for example.
