The one that lifted the limitation on playing different games from the same account at the same time.

That should never have been a limitation in the first place. If I have two games installed outside of Steam there's nothing stopping me from playing both at the same time, so WTF does Valve think ever justified it?

Agreed it was a chincy restriction. I'm glad they're righting that with the new Family Sharing.
