windows-opengl.blocklist lists duplicate "reason2d" keys for Intel

I know I already posted about this in the desktop team blog a few snapshots ago but I saw no reply and it's still there.

After Help->Check for Updates, extra\windows-opengl.blocklist.json contains what look like duplicate "status2d" keys instead of one status2d and one reason2d:

	"list entry": {
		"OpenGL-vendor": { "regex": "Intel.*" },
		"status2d": "blocked device",
		"status2d": "Severe drawing errors on Intel GPU's when using OpenGL"
	}

On my (Intel graphics) laptop this means I see a "not supported" in opera:gpu with no explanation why it's unsupported.

"list entry": {
"OpenGL-vendor": { "regex": "Intel.*" },
"status2d": "blocked device",
"status2d": "Severe drawing errors on Intel GPU's when using OpenGL" <--Thats probably the reason2d statement
}



Looking at the list entry you posted, From what i can see, The reason for being "not supported" is given (Bolded above).
The only problem i can see was that it was posted as a "status2d" statement and not a "reason2d" statement.

But the reason for the "not supported" status is there ^.
Opera 12.14 - 1738 (Portable 32bit) on Win8 Pro, Or portable versions of Linux Mint 14 or Puppy Linux Upup Raring - 3.9.8.1

I know that (see my post), you know that... the point is it should not be necessary for the user to even know this file exists to understand why their card is not supported.
