EDIT: I really miss comment-upload-picture. It would be much easier to explain/show some things directly from the uploaded picture.
EDIT2: Ouh, I see other people uploading pics to their MyOpera-account and then attaching them

Please do not "spam" the comments. That is, there is no need to repeat the same thing multiple times when it has already been mentioned by other people, even in older snapshots.
If you find that you can't or won't test this build for whatever reason, there's no reason to leave a comment about that. This is a snapshots, so you can expect problems.
Please read the big, red warning about the nature of snapshots. If testing unfinished software is not acceptable to you, I recommend that you stick to final versions.
Thanks!

They are working on it separately BECAUSE it is prioritized as Unix is still a bit behind the other two platforms in terms of quality. They are catching up really fast, though.
(Though their main QA did just get back from a well deserved vacation in Japan.)

Nice addition to formalize on-demand plug-ins...please consider adding "on-demand" in Site Prefs, too (hint, hint).

On audio page of russian social network site Vkontakte.ru / VK.com (int. version) there is a list of user's tracks, whiche are played by Flash-based player, before enable on demand plug-in you just click on play button on first song and player playbacks you all your tracks, but when «on demand plug-in» is enabled you have click on enable plugin each time when player switch between tracks, it's very uncomfortable.

Click on some page with mouse wheel and move the cursor a bit below (so the site starts to scroll a bit), wait few second (5-10) and then it stops working :/
Can anyone confirm?

This sounds like exactly what I have been waiting for! When Opera is restarted with tons of tabs, it's annoying when one of those Flash thingies does autoplay (many don't, as far as I can tell, until you activate the tab). And I started longing for a way to identify every tab which has Flash, just to be able to go around and close a few of them. This seems much better though! I will go upgrade now. Thanks, Opera team!Malgalad27. September 2010, 14:38

How can they focus on something without a proper bug report? I mean, shouldn't you be listing stuff like your PC specs, Linux distribution, what pages are open, whether you are using mail/feeds/etc. or not... I mean, basic stuff anyone should do when reporting problems.
