1 is just a matter of allowing the user to issue real-time commands ("Car, stop here", "Car, go park"). 3 is less of an issue when you can get off and let the car park itself wherever it wants.

2, 4 and 5 are a matter of smarter algorithms, but I doubt they won't be able to do all that way before they become commonplace.
