      Collection of bugs (many of them are not fixing during long periods):

      1. ugly dropdowns in Settings in light mode and flickering dropdowns in darkmode (since the 68 Developer version it's not fixed and as a result we have it in Beta now and soon in Stable, I guess) https://forums.opera.com/post/210304
      2. annoying and irritating flashbangs in dark mode (on start and while switching internal pages. The bug is also from the 68 Developer and as a result it's in Stable now) https://forums.opera.com/post/210703
      3. scrollable context menus (appeared in 69 Dev version, now it's in Beta already) https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2020/05/opera-69-0-3679-0-developer-update/#comment-209470
      4. tab's indicator is visible through the foreground tab while dragging (on all channels) https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2020/05/opera-70-developer/#comment-211355
      5. wrong alignment of bookmarks when expanding last folders on the bookmarks bar https://forums.opera.com/post/211823
      6. focused (highlighted red) closing cross after clicking 'cancel' on multiple tabs closing dialog (the bug is even on O58)
        https://forums.opera.com/post/207319
        Also, this dialog flickers white https://forums.opera.com/post/189575 (I don't want to mention how long it stays unfixed)
      7. focused(highlighted) buttons in EasySetup after reopening the menu https://forums.opera.com/post/204635

        @andrew84 By chance, I noticed in this post (https://forums.opera.com/post/189575) the DNA-81836 Light flash while refreshing history in the panel in dark mode
        I checked it right now, whether the issue is back or it wasn't fixes, but there's a still white flash when I refresh Bookmarks/History panels.

        P.S. Regarding the flashbangs/flickering, the last versions (68-70) are just horrible (at least here on Win8, maybe on Win10 which has the system dark theme it works smoother)

          DNA-86371 Add custom location to the weather widget

          This is a reasonable change.

                @andrew84 but '3 dots' are not visible in light mode.

                Also, the dropdown's reaction is weird when clicking arrow. No arrow or hand cursor for the dropdown's arrow icon. If I edit the location, it doesn't show suggestions (for example by typing 'Oslo' ->' , ' > 'space' it shows nothing, I must first delete the whole text and begin typing from scratch to see the suggestions list), also I can't close the dropdown by clicking arrow icon.

                      @indiqazzz There is no "Show more". I'm back on disabling this tab feature.

                        Auto-Completion of URLs in my speed dials or bookmarks does not work. When I type parts of any speed dial or bookmark into the address bar nothing happens. Opera does not search or find the associated page or URL.

                            It needs more optimizing to exclude the previously activated UI elements or fragments (opened folders/scrolled down page/expanded lists) visible for a moment when creating new tabs.

                              In this Opera developer update we have added Recently Closed Tabs to the Search in Tabs feature.

                              Thank you, Thank You ! You finally listened to our feedback. Do it more often!

                              Edit: I noticed that I can only see 3 recently closed tabs. Why so little? Can we have a dropdown menu of more closed tabs? Please, change this.

                                  @andrew84 Also I'd prefer some semitransparent background (the same in both dark and light modes, similar to the '+ Add a site' tile) instead of solid white/black.
                                  2020-05-26_213635.png
                                  And more info can be shown, for example 'real feel', 'wind', 'uv-index'. The tile itself can be rectangular, not square (to fit more info).

                                    Scrollbar on 'Add languages' popup doesn't look great in dark mode. It seems that the magnifying glass icon is misplaced too (on all channels).

                                          After this change, there is a problem with the opera://flags/#shared-start-page flag being disabled. If you open any site, then the folders on the Speed Dial page will no longer open.
