It raises a few points of perceived indiviuality. Are you really yourself or simply the way your parents designed you to be. Are you good at things because there just right for you or are you built to enjoy and be sucessful at them? I dont see much reason to breed a super race of humans via designer kids, considering that most of the population does remedial task. Most parents would build there kids to be good athletes, or smart so they could become doctors, or lawers, etc. No one is going to build a kid to become a garbage man, or a ringer at a local stores cash register.

I feel that making designer people is a bad idea, however correcting life threatning, or destroying problems i have no issue with. The problem arises that when your fixing a birth defect whats to stop you from tossing in some stuff to make improvments else where. Theres no reason for someone to be born onto this planet just to go through hell with some shitty problem, but theres also no reason to "upgrade" a normal person.
