Yeah, when I started in on it (a couple years ago now) my biggest complaint with KiCad was the library management.
Either I've gotten a lot better at it (arguable) or the newer version has taken great strides in terms of streamlining the process. No more do I have to counter-intuitively re-edit the library reference files for each and every project.
Plus now OSH Park takes the KiCad board file for manufacture, so I no longer have to export separate front and back copper, mask, screen, and drill files. It's downright dreamy.
