Gradient Overlay
A new option to dither your gradient is available. Note that this option is already present with the other Gradient tools in CS5 – it seems like Adobe forgot about to add it to layer styles.

Layers Palette
The Layers palette has been revamped to make it easier to find layers and apply layer properties to multiple layers at once. The new filtering option lets you find layers by kind, name, effect, mode, attribute, or color. You can also apply blending modes, opacity, locking, and color label to multiple layers at once. The bugs which didn’t allow you to set the layers opacity to 0 or duplicate multiple layers using its hotkeys has been fixed. Shape layer attributes can be copied/pasted just like layer styles.
