Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle: when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.

Actually Opera's config page is still good. Mozilla Firefox's about:config page is a minefield of settings and if someone enters there without a guide (from a website) what to modify exactly then even if he keeps on trying for 3 hours, it is very unlikely that he will reach the right preference to modify.

Though still opera:config should be slightly enhanced so +1
Windows 7 SP1 x86 edition and Windows XP Service Pack 3.
If you need any help from me with regards to Opera, please make a comment on any of my blog posts.

Another enhancement I'd like is: After loading opera:config#search_term, I'd like to edit "search_term" in the address field and press enter and have the opera:config page update the search. This can be implemented with the haschange event.

Once you do that, in the address field for that tab, change "cache" to something else and press enter and see if changes the search on the page.
