and they mention the same as I want. When pressing ctrl-h you will use your keyboard to start searching a search term or use your mouse to select a link. Instead you have to press tab multiple times to start focusing real ui items.
The old Opera (12.x) was always focused on great maneuverability with mouse and keyboard and I find this a huge oversight thats probably very easy to fix.
Thank you!
