Opera browser Selenium 4 support

I see that someone continues to publish the old SWP (Selenium Wire Protocol) driver for Opera, but this driver doesn't work at all in Selenium 4 without a bunch of workarounds, and then it doesn't work very well. The current recommendation is apparently to use chromedriver to automate Opera, but this doesn't really work, either. I can get new sessions, but pages that I navigate to aren't visible, and many functions don't work. If I manually navigate to a target page, my automation works, so the driver is able to interact with the browser to that extent. Has anyone else had success automating Opera with chromedriver in Selenium 4?

@leocg Are there other tools for automating any particular flavor of Opera?
