Add support for Google Reverse Image search
By reverse image search, I mean you have a picture and you want to know what it isI know there are other pages like http://www.tineye.com/ to do this trick, but noone can match Google :/ So as much as I love Opera, I have to use other ridiculously slow browsers to work with reverse image search on Google :/ (or at least I haven't realized how is it possible to use this feature in Opera)
go to http://images.google.com/
f12-edit site preferences-network-identify as firefox
refresh page, now you have that tiny camera icon.

What a load of nonesense. Why would Google remove this button for non-Firefox browsers, especially since Opera supports it just fine? I notice if you identify as Internet Explorer, it will not let you do a reverse image search, either.
I guess the permanent way around this (for now) is to do the following:
1) Go to http://images.google.com
2) Right-click in the page and select "Edit Site Preferences"
3) Click on the "Network" tab
4) Select "Identify as Firefox"
5) Click "OK"
EDIT UPDATE
Whoops! I just noticed s33s already provided these instructions. Should have read everything.

Go to preferences > Advanced > Toolbars and duplicate the default menu setup. This will create a copy of the standard_menu.ini in your profile(in the menu folder) - that is the one you will edit. When you change and save .ini file activate another in preferences > Advanced > Toolbars.
