I'd like to see a launcher home-applet - something that'd provide an
icon-view of applications on the home screen. Also, an official clock
systray applet would be nice. A better API for hibernation would be nice
too :)

I guess Opera feature requests are out of your hands, but if not, I'd
really like a 'close window' or 'window chooser' button in the toolbar
for full-screen mode - it's the only thing missing for me (currently
only accessible via the menu hardware key).
