If this is not the proper place to make a feature request, I will accept constructive flames.... :)

Opera saves:
[Saved Settings]
Open Dir=/home/user/last-opened-dir
Save Dir=/home/user/last-saved-in-dir-which-probably-contains-contraband\!

It would be nice if Opera saved:

[Saved Settings]
...
Favourite Dirs=/home/user/i-seem-to-save-to-this-dir-a-lot;/home/user/i-seem-to-save-to-this-dir-a-lot-too;/home/user/ooh\!-ooh\!-also-this-one;/home/user/et-cetera

and...

Associated Dirs=[application/x-bittorrent]/home/user/contraband\!;[string-match=thisdomain.tld]/home/user/savedir/thisdomains-savedir

- - -

In other words, I would like to be able to define certain criteria that would cause save-to dirs to be automagically selected instead of always having to tediously browse for them.

But.... the favourite-dirs feature would ameliorate the bulk of it.

I'll leave it to the UI wizards to imagine how best to implement this.

In other news, I don't seem to be able to find the appropriate place to
file a bug report. In short, flash plugin
[flash-player-9.0.60.184-i386-1sal] is unloaded from ALL OPEN PAGES
[opera-9.23-i386-1as, and every version of opera I have used for the past two years] instead of just the page that is closed. This is VERY annoying.
