@kened Probably something still in development.

• BABE is still broken (scale/layout, all the links/buttons do not work).
• OMenu>Bookmarks/History still depend on settings ('show in panel') in the sidebar https://forums.opera.com/post/222446
• If I open some folder from bookmarks panel and then using middle-click to open bookmark, the folder is closed. Before, it was possible to open several bookmarks this way... https://forums.opera.com/post/223256
• Some icons on the address bar still disappear for the moment while the add site/folder dialog is active. https://forums.opera.com/post/222615
• play/pause button still flickers on the video poput when clicking timeline. I can't play a video that was paused in the main window before the popup was activated.

Hi, it should be "72.0.3807.0" in the title and link on the blog, and the same in the change log title.

@kened: Okay, I Must ask now (or die stupid): What is this "BABE"?

@ralf-brinkmann They (Opera) call the Enhanced Address Bar as 'BABE'

"DNA-88161 [Downloads] Missing focus after accessing the download page" is fixed, but if you press CTRL-SHIFT-DEL to clear the browser data the focus is still not on the blue button. You have to press SHIFT-TAB twice.

@kened I didn't want to know the reason for the name, I wanted to know what it is. There is no section in the settings, no topic in the flags and nothing about it in the help file. And I'm sure it's something I have never used.

Something I found in the last developer version (I think the time was to short to fix it):
When I click a link in an external program, for example in a newsletter in my e-mail program, Opera (already opened and minimized in the taskbar) opens the page in a new tab - and the icon in the Windows taskbar changes it position from somewhere in the middle to the far right!

Windows 10x64, Operax64

@ralf-brinkmann: This is the enhanced address bar, as @andrew84 said. And yes, this feature is in the settings, at: settings -> user interface -> show enhanced address bar.

@ralf-brinkmann: The Opera team had to rewrite this entire feature from scratch, which is probably why they call it BABE.

@ralf-brinkmann: The enhanced address bar is a really useful feature. This makes navigation more fluid. In the previous version, it was possible to access even the speed dial links.
