There are some sites for which the www subdomain is not merely an alias for the base domain, and where you may wish to whitelist the www subdomain without whitelisting all subdomains.

My specific use-case involves Tumblr: I had whitelisted uBlock Origin on www.tumblr.com (where the user's posting interface lives, but where no public Tumblr page lives, all of them being on separate subdomains of tumblr.com), because it was running slowly and I wanted to keep as many extensions as possible from running there while I was trying to edit a post. I do not, however, want to whitelist my ad-blocker on every single Tumblr page, which is what whitelisting tumblr.com (without the www) would do; when I enter www.tumblr.com in the exceptions list, it is transformed to tumblr.com, and it should not be.

I actually post to Tumblr very rarely, so I decided, instead, to just not whitelist Tumblr at all.

I enjoyed your collection of portable versions of old Opera, and I hope it stays up somehow, even after you personally stop using Opera 12.18.

Mozilla has said that ESR 52 will be the last version of the browser for Windows XP and Vista; extrapolating from the RapidRelease schedule, it appears as if ESR 52 will go EOL around 29 May 2018, when ESR 59 leaves testing and becomes the sole ESR in development.

The announcement of Opera 41 Beta said that it's targeting Opera 42 for the first stable 64-bit Windows builds: http://www.opera.com/blogs/desktop/2016/10/opera-41-beta-harder-better-faster-stronger/#post-2351
