TBH, to help, bug reports are probably the most useful. Having
feedback from users with "real world" setups
and usage will help us improve. As stated before, our biggest issue at
the moment is packaging, once it's handled
it will be significantly easier to test and develop.
Standalone cinder domains were never actually supported (never left
tech preview), we do not have immediate plans
for an upgrade path, but you can definitely submit an RFE for this

We added better cleanup for migration cleanup to handle the bug.
There is another issue which was not known at the time with multipath
preventing unmapping rbd devices[1], and it might be what you
experienced.
This can be fixed manually by blacklisting rbd devices in multipath
conf, but once the bug is fixed vdsm will handle configuring it.
