A minionmaster with 10 minions is the best damage dealer in all of Guild Wars, as tested on Master of Damage, on top of having the best energy management system in all of guild wars, with the equivalent of a permanent +10 pips of energy. Why the heck would anyone want to buff them even more?

"Gear tanks" were the dumbest thing in all of GW history, a pure AI exploit, and I'm ashamed to admit I'm one of the people who invented it, or at least one of the first to report it in the forums - but I could never believe that it'd take ANet until the release of Factions to fix it.

The "soul reaping nerf" put a cap on necro energy gain so the can no longer gain more than the equivalent of 10 pips of energy (at 12 soul reaping). It amuses me to no end when I hear necros claim that made the profession unplayable.

Pets leave corpses: Was exploited in PvP, but of no consequence in PvE, so I don't know why you mention it in this context.

Dumbarse idea, predicated on the notion that all that stuff was changed to the detriment of PvE. It wasn't. Had MMs never been nerfed, we never would have gotten missions in NF and Factions with the huge waves of enemies we have right now. Can you imagine Vizunah Square with an unnerfed MM? What the imba crap would that be? And, believe it or not, PvE does get balanced. It's something they've upheld for 2 and a half years before dropping the ball (and refusing to pick it up) for some unfathomable reason with UB.
