"live"-wallpapers for Speed Dial
I was watching this Video, and I thought that it would be great if you can use "live"-wallpapers in speed-dial, like some in android, not just an image, but a moving image, and if possible an "intelligent" one, for example:- Video @1:15, you see a moving image, it would be great if you can set the moving background image to your speed-dial background
- And an example of an "intelligent" background is an equalizer for all the output audio on your pc
Sorry for my poor English...

It would be "nice" and all... but really, I'd be happy with a simple slideshow style "live" background.
Having a video as the background, would be somewhat easy... but the "intelligent" one, not at all... huge headaches there for the developers, because they have to make it for at least 3 platforms (Lin/Mac/Win) and a range of versions of each, and since there isn't (is there?) a generic way to get information like that, they would have to develop plug-ins that work with all the popular media players to get information from them since the OS's themselves rarely if ever have any API to get information like that.
It would probably end up increasing Opera's size by quite a bit for a "feature" that really has no purpose and only 2% of the users would actually use (really, do you just sit there and stare at your speed dial all the time?).
