To answer my own question, I just remembered two examples. First, "skip to main content" links that are always visually hidden, even when they have focus. Another is one I saw earlier this week, an accordion widget that that was totally keyboard accessible but had no visual indication of focus; fine if a screen reader is explaining everything, really hard to use if you're using your vision. I suppose a blanket issue is the lack of visual indication of focus, especially by overriding the browser's native styling of focused objects.
Still, I'm always interested in other examples.

One of the examples he had of a terrible accessibility item was an overlay (e.g. picture zoom, etc.) for which the "close" button was right there on screen - and at the very bottom of the page after dozens of links for a screen reader.
