Recently there were a two new PowerShell v5 Preview features which IMHO are well worth waiting with bated breath for..... or definitely becoming a WMF 5.0 early adopter for :)
The first is the ISE extension for finding and installing modules. This feature takes advantage of the new PowerShellGet module. Best of all the PowerShellGet functionality helps our community overcome the module management problem, and this feature provides an easy to use GUI for discovering modules on community or company repositories.

The second is a static code analyser for PowerShell scripts and modules. Taking a plugin written by a colleague the PowerShell team have now included the functionality in the WMF 5.0 framework (Feb release). This analyses your script against known patterns and practices. Well worth running against your scripts even just to satisfy curiosity, I know I will be.
