No offence meant, but what I really don't like is that most of the newer amps and receivers don't feature proper tape-loops with monitor function anymore (although on some one can at least abuse the zone 2 funtionality for that purpose...) - because I really like classic tape-loops not only for recorders with confidence monitoring, but also for generally being universal & defeatable insert-loops for all kinds of "processors" (including equalisers and various other "filters").
Whereas I regard a DAC section in an integrated amp (or stereo receiver, unless equipped with a digital tuner) as a more questionable feature, because there's still more of a development going on in that sector (and be it only the addition of yet more new inputs (USB, HDMI...) and also because there's no lack of separate, external DACs in various price classes and not least because most digital sources will already sport an integrated DAC section anyway.
