List update - 2017. 10. 03.

In v48, two features from the list have reached the stable channel. They are removed from the list. Their stats were the following:

Screenshot tool (entire page, visible area, selected area)

• I don't want to answer: 9
• Not important: 86
• Somewhat important: 105
• Very important: 56
• Must have: 42

Unit converter in the Search popup (similar to the currency converter)

• I don't want to answer: 14
• Not important: 113
• Somewhat important: 96
• Very important: 44
• Must have: 30

With this list update, the following requests are being added to the list:

• Inline translator in the search popup
• Paste option in the search popup (in editable fields)

Page 3, "Page content":

Built-in reader mode:  Via extensions
                       As a native function

Built-in reader mode implemented via extension?

Another important thing (or perhaps I should say "a thing that actually is important") is how tab stacking is implemented, because I personally do NOT want to have it they way Vivaldi have implemented their so called "Tab stacking" (aka "tab hiding", because that what it really is). I would like to have it similar to the Opera 11/12 version. If some similar survey is made in the future perhaps this could be included.

Let's just stick to the feature itself, not the implementation for now.

Chrome/ium/Blink extensions compared to old Firefox & Opera extensions are simple, dull, gimmicky and make-believe. Chrome Extension store is a huge junkyard of plugins that moreso record browser and force users to create accounts and put they're stuff on cloud - than do any much else than data harvesting make-believe gimmickys~ brrrh.

I do not have a Google account and I have 3 Chrome extensions in Opera. You do not have to create an account to get those.

Hi,
I have suggestion. I grew up on "old opera" and I am missing old opera tab open/close behaviour.
There are some extensions, but they dont work properly.

Vivaldi has this implemented natively. So I assume this will not be a problem.

There is a nice Opera extension called Policy Control which allows one to control permission to use camera and microphone on a per-site basis (and several other things).

I will put it on the list on the next update.

It is already on the list.

Opera does not support webapps.
