Feature Request: Interactive Browser Pet

Idea: Add an optional interactive pet that lives inside the Opera GX browser.
The pet could casually walk around the browser, react to the mouse cursor, sit or sleep when inactive, and interact with the user through simple animations.
The key feature would be that the pet is fully draggable. If it gets in the way, users can simply drag it somewhere else, and its position could be remembered. It should also be possible to hide or disable it completely.
Why it would be great
Opera GX already has Playground features that don't necessarily need to improve productivity — they're there because they're fun. A browser pet would fit that philosophy perfectly.
It could also make waiting for pages to load feel less boring, because instead of staring at a loading screen, you have a little creature wandering around and doing its own thing. It should also be able to roam around freely around everything
The important part is keeping it lightweight and unobtrusive. It shouldn't interfere with clicking, typing, or normal browsing.
Basically:
Is it necessary? No.
Does it improve productivity? Probably not.
Would people enjoy it? Absolutely.
Please let the Playground team cook.
