5 wishes for future Opera browser

, ,

In answer to 5 wishes Opera tag game started by Daniel Goldman.
I was tagged by Eddie Lopez from Usability blog.
5 wishes as user
  • cross-platform profile sync (bookmarks, news feeds, contacts, blocked content, etc.)
  • better news feeds (folders, folder views, trash can)
  • give more focus to Opera mail (don't forget to add ability of removing attachments)
  • undo closed window or undo tabs from closed window(s)
  • improved Notes (rich text, pictures, date stamp, sorting, integration of Notes and some blogging systems??)

5 wishes as web developer and web designer
  • native developer tools
  • better source viewer/editor
  • fix all known bugs in CSS 2.1
  • support parts of CSS 3: border-radius, selectors, multiple backgrounds, RGBA, box-shadow
  • XSLT document() function

5 wishes as Opera fan and tester:
  • better icon (logo of Opera browser, not company)
  • better update system
  • open or half-open bug tracking system (ability to see at least your own submissions)
  • better handling of needed but not presented plug-ins
  • "I prefer ergonomics over being a populist platform." Eddie Lopez' wish #4
    Don't move tab bar to "correct" place by default please!

Extra wishes as user
  • fit to width, zoom, encoding in per-site prefs
  • better sessions management
  • saving files with original filename, not 8.3 DOS format
  • based on Notes basic PIM
  • Unified meta-data interface from non-tropo's wish #2
  • Tabs grouping
  • improved Bookmarks (option to store textual content of a page inside bookmark, and this should be searchable)
  • contact managment with views instead of folders (so I can have contacts in multiple groups without having to copy them)

Next in line
I would like to see 5 wishes from these guys:
