I think they work wonderfully as forward assault elements of the army. The current stats aren't bad for them, with the 3/6 unit sizes they can heft out some significant damage... Paladins are a bit too slow, I think, at 20cm to be really functional in that role as things stand, though. I'd actually really like to see Knights become a primarily melee-centric assault force, as opposed to fire-fighting which Titans excel at thanks to their void shields. With Lances being first-strike melee weapons and their other melee weapons going to MW status. Faster then a tricked out melee Reaver, but not as lethal. Slower then Warhounds, but with better hit numbers and attacks for point-values. At least, that's the way I see them working.
Yeah, that's about the only thing left for them. Movement wise the idea of infiltrate kept coming up only to go away again. Is move 25cm or infiltrate and 20cm the way to go? Remember as WE they can barge and sorta infiltrate already.
Really though if all the knight fans have strong ideas they should say them and say how those knights fit in with the Titans. I've always seen how they can work in their own list, but as a adjunct I'm a bit baffled.
