Increase URL Length Limit for Custom Site Panels

Hi Opera team and community,
I'd like to request an increase to the maximum character length allowed for URLs when adding a "Custom site panel" to the Opera sidebar.
Currently, the limit seems too short to add URLs for certain pages, specifically those belonging to Chrome extensions (which often look like chrome-extension://[very_long_extension_id]/page.html). I'd love to be able to dock some of my frequently used extension panels directly in the sidebar for easy access, but the URL length restriction prevents this.
Allowing longer URLs in this field would make the Custom Site Panel feature even more powerful, especially for users who rely on specific extensions for their workflow. It would be a great quality-of-life improvement.
Thanks for considering this suggestion!
