* it would be great to be able to submit comment,
* I use "collapse thread" quite often so it would be beneficial to do it in one tap.
Overall good design and better than other, probably abandoned clients for WP8. Keep up the good work!

I'm afraid that Opera vision is becoming a company serving ads, so the browser will be no longer best choice for power users.
The old Opera (till 12.16) just didn't have many users, but with new engine Opera could take some users from Chrome. I think this is a step for being attractive for advertisers.
Just take a look at Opera business page [1] - the "technology" part just gives historical context, whereas ads/content takes prominient place.
I think we'll see some innovations from Opera such as mentioned Stash, Discover (another way of promoting partners' content), etc. But I think in the case of web browser we really need faster horse.
What is interesting, Opera published their commits to Chromium and Blink [2] - it seams that only 8 Opera developers work with browser, at least with adopting engine.
By the way, Opera 12.16 was released, but you will not find it easily[3].

Other thing is dicoverability of that icon and learning what it does.
[1] I think Firefox does that too.
As far as the front wing is concerned: - the bigger, the more complicated means more downforce thus enabling drivers to go faster in a corner but such wing leads to more dangerous situations, such as puncturing oponent's tires. The bigger wings were introduced in 2009 when many parts of the cars were streamlined in order to improve overtaking and reduce dependency on aerodynamics.
The rear wing: - DRS was introduced 2 years ago. It stands for Drag Reduction System - driver can "open" rear wing to reduce drag (downforce is reduced). Basically means that rear wing is split horizontally into two smaller wings. This system improves top speed so it can be only used on straight lines. The failure of this system can lead to lost of control of the car in non-straight parts of the circuit. The usage of this system is heavily reduced by regulations.
Worth watching is lighting [1]. Its main feature is the incremental building which looks really promising.
Now Opera is ditching widgets and unite to focus on extenions.
Google can use .plus domain to simplify links to Google+ profile. I would really like to see something like user-name.plus/photos.
