I wasn't too bothered by the omission of the scouring of the shire. It would have been a bit of an anti-climax and I seem to recall there were quite a few complaints about the 'multiple endings' to RotK.
Most of the scenes that I missed most in the theatrical versions were put back in the extended dvds. However, I still think that Saruman was not given enough screen time in the last film and just finding the Palantir lying in the water, without any explanation about how it got there was a bit of a wasted opportunity.
