      Thank you to the developers for making it possible to switch to Opera. The previous graphical lag issues are longer apparent and I have become unable to live without mouse gestures among the other unique features now.

      Please find a list of bugs and/or feature requests below.

      1. Select a non-hyperlinked URL, right-click, choose ‘Go to web address’. The URL opens in the current tab even when holding CTRL, which would expectedly force a URL to open in a new tab instead. This is a problem, since it requires the user to right-click, copy the URL, open a new tab, paste the URL, and finally press Enter instead, obviously requiring many obsolete steps.

      2. CTRL + left-click on the back button does not open the previous page in a new tab but in the current tab. Fortunately, Opera is kind enough to provide the user with a pop-up window asking if they are indeed intending to leave the current page (if the user is busy filling a form). This is however extremely bothersome, since there is not a single way (that I currently know of) to refer to a previous page (from the current tab) without leaving the page.

      3. As soon as the user opens a bookmark, the bookmark should also select itself (or at least leave some sort of ‘a:visited’). This would allow the user to find themselves back more easily as they return to the bookmarks tab later.

      4. The add-on ‘Select like a Boss’ provided the user with the ability to select hyperlinked text. Please make this a native feature of future Opera releases. I do respect the decision of not adding such feature, since the add-on does very well and has not let me down once so far.

        None of these are bugs. Also, this is not the suggestions forum.

          The behaviour of one and two are not replicable on Chrome, which leads to believe that they are both bugs. The other two are indeed feature requests as indicated. I shall keep it separate by posting another thread to the Suggestion box forum.

            Chrome and Opera share a renderer but not an interface. While you could say it is a missing feature it is not a bug.
