Opera Mobile 11.1 opera:config Documentation Incomplete?

I was having an issue with a site and thought changing my user agent would help.

I opened opera:config to change the Spoof User Agent setting in the User Agent section. The values for this setting are numeric and the value displayed was 7. I checked Opera Support for valid values

www.opera.com/support/usingopera/operaini/#ua

but the documentation listed only *5* possibilities for this setting.

My Opera version is 11.10.ADR-1109081720

and was updated per an Android Market notification a couple of weeks ago.

Is there a bug in this version or is the documentation incorrect?

The documentation is for the desktop version, and even then isn't totally up-to-date.

Figured as much, sgunhouse :-)

Documentation has always been a weak area for Opera.

So I guess pointing this out for the millionth time won't help, will it?

Pointing it out to whom? Maybe the fact that it is a desktop Opera page can get the Mobile team to work on something for us ... but don't expect instantaneous results.

7 is "identify as Opera Desktop".

Yes, due to capacity problems, the documentation unfortunately only covers the desktop version.
