<![CDATA[Some questions about general settings]]>I made myself try out Opera. It seems quite good in terms of functionality, but there are some basic options (or their absence) that I don't fully understand.

  • Is it possible to name a tab island?
  • How can I choose a color for a tab island?
  • Is there a shortcut to manually hibernate background workspaces or background tabs?
  • How can I change mouse gestures?
  • Is there an option to add exceptions for tab snoozing?
  • Is it possible that there are no vertical tabs?
  • I added Brave Search as custom search engine but the Make It Default is greyed out. Is this normal?
  • Can I add custom url as new tab somewhere?

I'm fine if these exist in some beta/alpha version or in some flag.

I appreciate if you can help me with these.

Nope
You can't
Not that I know
You can't as far as I know
There is opera:/discards but it's not permanent
They seem to have decided to not reinclude vertical tabs
Yes, only pre-defined search engines can be set as default one
Nope
