This week, Warlock veteran and Wowhead Class Writer, Kalamazi, prepared three videos discussing feedback for the current state of the three Warlock specs and his wishlist for patch 10.2 for every Warlock spec.
You can also read the in-depth feedback/wishlist document Kalamazi prepared here:
Kalamazi 10.2 Warlock Feedback
Affliction
Affliction got a handful of changes in patch 10.1.5 but there are a few things that could change or be altered to make the spec feel a bit better in M+ and raiding. Affliction does feel pretty good right now with the reduction of the cast of seed of corruption, malefic affliction removal feels great and it plays how it should've played in 10.0.
One of the biggest feedbacks for Affliction is the button bloat. Similar to other specs like Retribution and Shadow, Affliction could use a bit of trimming on the sheer number of buttons the spec currently has access to, streamlining the experience.
Other points the feedback brings up are awkward situations with Vile Taint's cooldown and tuning issues with Inevitable Demise and Dark Harvest.
Demonology
Demo is likely the Warlock spec that needs the most work of the three. Demonology currently faces a lot of issues with its damage profile and borrowed power.
Demonology tree has some talent issues:
Sargerei Technique as a talent right now feels out of place with the spec, buffing Shadowbolt instead of Demon Bolt
Bilescourge Bombers as a choice node against Demonic Strength feels weak, as many talents buff DS but not Bombers
Fel and Steel has a really weak tuning currently
The new 10.1.5 talents, Malefic Impact, Imp-erator, and Cavitation, all feel a bit undertuned, rarely seeing any play
Doom. Feels great thematically, but has no use currently.
Among other issues, like Immutable Hatred
Overall, the main issue with Demonology boils down to the amount of cooldown stacking the spec can achieve with Nether Portal + associated talents, Power Infusion, Class Trinket, Fragment, and Tier Set. For the health of the spec, Nether Portal should be retuned, maybe redesigned (but keep the Pit Lord around!). A result of the supremacy of Nether Portal is that Demonology, in its current state, rarely sees play in Mythic+, whereas Affliction and Destruction appear way more often, even being part of some comps.
Destruction
While Destruction has gotten some changes in 10.1.5, the spec still presents a couple of underlying issues with its talent tree, mobility, madness, Infernal brand, among other things.
A great quality of life for Destruction in 10.2 would be a change to the early AoE talents, making Cataclysm available to be used together with other talents, maybe instead of being a choice node with Inferno, have it replace Pyrogenics in the tree. This would help immensely with the ramp-up Destro currently has when starting a pack that you haven't chain pulled.
Other feedback points are changes to Soulburn, Infernal Brand, Madness of the Azj'Aqir, Dimensional Rift, Grand Warlock's Design, and Rain of Chaos.

My wishlist is that they bring back demon form (or similar form) to demonology warlock.
