Disable opera:illegal-url
When a URL contains a space or comma or etc. the Opera shows opera:illegal-url-XXX instead of the real URL in the status bar. If I open the source of site I find the real URL, but this circumstantial and very annoying.It would be great to be able to disable this "feature".

Or instead replace the title tooltip part with a warning so at least the address is still copiable.

Another thing is to not add the wrong URL to our history list. If it's the wrong the URL, then we don't want it, anymore.
If I type in "go ogle.c", then I'd rather see something like this.
You typed in an illegal URL. Did you mean any of these?

Phishing attack or not, it's up to the user to decide.
A warning yes, but seeing the real url in the adress bar doesn't make it more dangerous.
Someone forget a comma on a forum and it's opera:illegal-url, example :
http://www.opera.com,
You have to come back, select the URL copy-paste it in the adress bar and remove the comma.
And if the URL was shortened, you can't copy it, or you have to view the source.
It's annoying.

If the user set for example set as text opera and put a link behind it like this: opera. It's even worse, you'll have to view the source...

Finally the day has come! <a href='http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/2010/11/06/snapshot'>CORE-33240 (Get rid of opera:illegal-url-xx)</a>
This is the oldest thread that I found on this issue. Note the response of the Senior Developer. I wonder what solution they have implemented?
