IMO, LXDE lacks some applications to be completed. In Lubuntu, we had to use XFCE applications because LXDE doesn't have them (for example, CD burning, notification utility, power management).
Also, configuration utilities are sometimes limited (lxrandr) or not nicely integrated (openbox settings). LXDE is also not a integrated desktop, which can make others afraid (because all other desktop are), but I personally think it's a advantage over the other desktop environment. Finally, LXDE is evolving slowly recently (except the file manager of course ;-)) and maybe lose some advertising opportunities ?
