I loved him in that episode a season or two back when he was speaking lovely fluent French while Sydney crawled around the air ducts in some factory or something. Apparently he was born in Paris (I know this because I own Alias Declassified: The Official Companion and never mind why). So I don't mind him when when he is 1. being French, or 2. being beaten or especially 2a. being beaten by Jack. The rest of the time he is like one of those little yappy dogs that get in your way on the sidewalk.
I also think that if Sydney must have a love interest, it needs to be either A. someone who is her inferior but worshipfully devoted to her without the slightest shred of jealousy or insecurity that she's faster and stronger than he is (see: Will, Marshall) or someone who actually is her equal and rejoices in it (see: Sark, Anna Espinosa.)
Vaughn is a natural type A who thinks he's a type B. Therefore he is annoying.
