Disable number keys tab switching
When a number key is pressed, Opera jumps to the tab with the corresponding index. In certain cases (when javascript is listening to key presses), this is not desirable. How can I disable it?Thanks.
Or edit your existing keyboard shortcuts if you only want to disable some of the single-key shortcuts.

That's not a standard Opera feature in the first place, you'll have to look at whatever you did to add that. Standard definitions have 1 as Switch to previous page and 2 as Switch to next page, while the other numbers don't switch tabs. (They do other things, like zoom the current tab and such, but they don't switch tabs.)
You're right, I misinterpreted the shortcuts, but I'd still like to disable all number-key mappings. I use the built-in 9.2 compatible shortcuts.

Tried it before posting. Single-key shortcuts are disabled, and pressing "1" (for example) in shortcuts editing dialog finds no relevant mappings.

Did you upgrade your install from older versions that had single-key shortcuts enabled? If you did, then the settings probably carried over, try a fresh install with a new profile.
Yeah, well, my Opera has been upgraded at least 10 times after the last install, but doing a clean one just for this little thing is not really an option.

I'd gladly do it if I could find any of them. That was actually the first thing I tried, but searching for "1" or "2" gives me no relevant results. Maybe I just don't know what should I be looking for... Any suggestions?
The other numeric shortcuts ... let me see, 3 is easy to find, 4 and 5 are Minimize/Maximize respectively, and 6-0 are all Zoom shortcuts.
