Hi I am not sure where to give feedback to the opera browser, but I would love to see Opera implement better functionality to solve issues on the web.
ATM one of the processes that are painstaking is uploading files, too many clicks make the process very slow. Click on a filechooser, select the image (or file) you need and choose it, and press upload.
Lately Drag and drop widget has been pushed by some HTML5 pages, however this assumes you already have a file chooser and get out of the maximized screen to make it able to drag the file into the box.
A more common way of interacting to desktop computers is using keyboard shortcuts. The most popular are the Ctrl-c and Ctrl-v combination. The big question is how to make this work on the web. Having a Ctrl-v into a file uploader skiping the file chooser, will enhance the experience on the web a great deal.
Forget about browsing for a file in a tree of directories, or remembering the file name. Simple ctrl-c from a file manger and ctrl-v into the browser, would be enough to upload the picture.
The browser will be smart enough to access the clipboard and be able to retrieve the file temporary file.
