Rolling Back Changes In Your Org
It allows to roll back changes in your org when a particular remote JavaScript
methods throw an exception.
In an apex class when a JavaScript method is calling a remote
action and it happens to throw an exception the action thus
remains incomplete.

Cache Operations In Visualforce™ Controllers

made using the put and the
remove methods that were
supported in the Cache

now supported in the greater
methods of Visualforce™
controllers and in constructors.

Metadata Accessibility In Apex
So in case you are an ISV
involved in making apps that
happen to use custom metadata
components now you access the
metadata using Apex.

Metadata Accessibility In Apex
The new metadata namespace can be used
for accessing the metadata in the Apex
code. The namespace contains the classes
that will contain the components,
metadata types and the classes that allow
to retrieve or deploy metadata
components as well in the subscriber org.

Controller Methods In Managed Packages

rectifies the access controls on Apex
controllers in managed packages.
