I was really upset that the meeting between Jacob and the "candidates" was so rushed and downplayed. I guess I understand that most of their questions, had they asked any, would have been answered by stuff we saw in the previous episode, but still... Such an important event in the life of "Lost", and the annointing of a new "Jacob" took 20 seconds.
As someone else said, it must not be as important as it seems and will probably be short lived.
And someone asked about why Jacob wanted a failsafe. If all the candidates died and the MIB started to get off the island, I'm guessing Widmore was instructed to perform some emergency "destroy the island" plan where Desmond would be the only one left, and then become the new "Jacob" by default.
