search boxes not highlighted when moving from tab to tab

Hi all,

First off, I dig Opera big time, but one thing has been bugging me mucho.

I need to do a lot of internet research, and I have some ten pages which I generally use.

However, when I move from tab to tab (and I do so often and quickly) the search boxes of online databases and such are not actively highlighted when I select their tab, so I need to purposely click on whatever word is still in the search box before I can type the word I'm looking for.
Most other browsers have the search box highlighted when you switch to the tab, so one can simply start typing.
In Opera, the word in the search box is highlighted in gray, but it is not actively selected (which would make it blue).

This may not seem like a big deal, but it's driving me nuts here. I actually switched to another browser because of this. I came back to Opera to see what's good with the new version, but the issue remains.

This would be my fave browser if not for this issue, so any help would be warmly welcomed. Hope this made some sense.

Thaaaaanks
