A major problem is that one can only have a single connection. It would be nice to do WiFi Direct or AdHoc mode while being connected to an AP. Being able to use WiFi without losing the AP connection (or having a standardized AdHoc channel for discovery) would replace uses of Bluetooth in consumer devices where Bluetooth is used for the initial connection to join a WiFi - some devices rely on WiFi Direct but the UX is very bad because the AP connection gets lost.
