Contacts in E-Mail Panel

Greetings,
first of all let me thank you for providing the best browser (mobile/desktop) on earth. I've been using it for several years now, and I've been happy ever since.

What's a bit annoying is that I practically need several contacts for a period of time in the "followed contacts" because of my job (I have a recording studio for small bands and political bands).
This is annoying because there already are enough contacts not related to my work that take up a lot of space in the panel.
And I am sure people that it comes in handy for all people that have a lot of e-mail contact.

So here are several possibilities how to avoid all of this:
- Introduce folders you can group the followed contacts in (like you can in the contacts panel)
  • Introduce folders you can group the followed contacts in (like you can in the contacts panel)
  • Add a (sorry I'm German, I don't know an appropriate word) "Sub-Panel" (like "Labels" or "Followed Contacts") that you can show and hide once clicked on, where the contacts appear like they have been arranged in the Contacts Panel.
  • Show the number of unread mails in the contacts panel, right next to their name


The Opera Mail client with it's filter options is awesome, but in future (Currently more and more bands request my services) this might force me to use another E-Mail Client or maybe even to develop one myself.

As I said, many other people might profit themselves

So what do you think? Do you think something like this should be included in a future version of Opera
