      Okay, so this would be something obscure and innovative, but it would help out productivity a lot.

      So what I'd want is being able to type while the website is loading and you have a white screen and then inputting that into the first focused textbox. For example when loading Youtube.com (which takes some time for me) you could already type your query and hit enter before the website has loaded. When it does load, Opera would detect that the first focused item is a textbox (which probably even has id or class of "search" or something like that). It then would immediately past the query into that textbox and if you hit enter, it would do the same.

      What do you think about this? Have I explained it well enough?

      Regards,
      Kim
