      I have been an Opera user for a long time, even when only a few knew about it. It is one of my favorite and most used browsers.

      One feature I would love is the ability to assign a default destination Folder for downloads that would vary according to the source Domain (including Folder paths). When I use the same browser for different reasons such as banking, software development, research, mail, photos, games and news, it would be great if I didn't have to start at the 'Downloads' or last destination folder. BTW, as I see it, the 'Downloads' folder is just a temporary junk folder.

      I know File Explorer et al file browsers provide 'Quick Access' links but they get cluttered quickly. Especially with Windows where you can't see where the folder actually is. Please ignore OneDrive and Library (?) obfuscated names... use and show the true path.

      I have used a lot of browsers while developing compatible web pages for them and I don't believe any of those browsers had such a feature as this.

      As a typical User, I know this feature would really set Opera apart from the other browsers.

      As a retired developer, I believe this would be a simple feature to code. The Versioning and QC would probably be the hardest and longest part of the job.
