      Hi,

      it would be nice if I'll be able to use opera's own links in comments. For now probably due to "unknown" protocol any link is prefixed with denied:. For example if I use in comment:

      [Experiments - Tab Cycling](opera://flags/#activation-order-tab-cycling)
      

      it's changed to denied:

      [Experiments - Tab Cycling](denied:opera://flags/#activation-order-tab-cycling)
      

      Practical example => Experiments - Tab Cycling.

      Thank you for considering.

          It wouldn't work anyway...

          Chromium blocks following these kinds of links to internal pages from any sites/locations. 😛

            What about "localhost://"?

                At least it's secure :)). So sure we can close this "suggestion".

                    "Localhost" doesn't contain the IP of the user's machine!

                    It can be used for showing the location of certain folders within OSs' file systems.

                      Hello, OP!

                      By the way, Stealth, can I be allowed to use the same pic for my avatar as yourself?

                        Sure, you're free to choose ;). But I appreciate asking!

                          Sure can be useful. But maybe you mean file:///. Still risky one. And blocked by browser same way like internal browser pages.

                            I'm not sure.
                            When in the menu of my OpenOffice I chose, for the current document, "show in browser", it opened in my Opera with the url starting with "localhost".
