The Google Visualisation API is a convenient and useful API for rendering table data in a browser. Particularly nice is its low-overhead cross-browser rendering: SVG is default but an equivalent is used in IE < 9. However, there seems to be either a bug in the generated SVG or Opera when restrictions are placed on axes of line charts.

For some time now I've had display problems with panels in Opera. While Opera 12 is really nice on a whole the problems with panels have got so bad that I can't use it. This is fine in principle, as Opera 12 is in beta, but I have yet to see any action on these problems, reported either using the bugtracker or in response to the releases. I don't want to tell Opera QA how to do its job but it does strike me as odd how uncommunicative the bugtracking process is.
I've made a film of the current problems:
1) The total of new feed entries is wrong: 16 are displayed when there are none new (DSK-363952)
2) Panels ghost across the screen when clicked (DSK-363951)
3) Opening a new tab changes the panel to contacts (DSK-363953)
