Notification window is wrong

It seems Opera uses own implementation for tooltip (or notification). As a result, when I save picture and "download completed" notification appears, Opera completely Looses Keyboard Focus! And while this notification on screen (it stays forever), it intercepts all my keys (PgDn, for example) so I cannot scroll down page. It's annoying behaviour. I prefer not to see any notifications at all, than additionally clicking to remove notification.
I offer to stop showing your custom windows - use normal, native Windows' tooltip - it's enough to say to user "download completed" And (!!!!) native Windows tooltips Never Intercept Focus .

@sgunhouse Problem is any additional "pressing" or "clicks" are unnecessary, inconvenient. I saved image - OK, nothing important happen! Once image saved, I want to use PgDn to continue scroll the page. Currently it's impossible, because notification window grabs keyboard focus. It's wrong design and implementation. Simple tooltip is enough to say "download is finished". Is it possible to replace "overnotification" with simple tooltip? Or at least make notification to NOT grab focus?

@vincie I can agree that I'm not sure why we need a notification when saving an image from a page (as opposed to actually downloading one from a link or button as would happen on some sites), but the existing notification does make sense for real downloads.

@sgunhouse I guess downloading image or any other file works thru the same procedure (what is right). What I suggest is one of variants:
- Replace notification with simple tooltip (standard Windows element). Or have both and let user switch between 'em.
- Improve notification to Not intercept keyboard focus. It's stupid and inconvenient during web surfing.
- For image show just tooltip, while for other types show notification. Again user can select behaviour thru settings.
