Tagging people on Facebook won't work.
Facebook added this functionality to people's status:http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=109765592130
It doesn't work with Opera 10.53 (which I think is the latest).
When you type the @ the drop down list of your friends doesn't show up.
I've got the same problem -.-
I need to change the browser everytime only for tagging my friends on Facebook...

This happens because Facebook does browser sniffing and only enables that feature if it detects that you are using Firefox.
A workaround to fix this (by making Facebook think that you are using Firefox instead of Opera) is: press 'F12' on any Facebook page -> Edit Site Preferences -> Network -> Browser Identification -> 'Identify as Firefox'.
Also, contact Facebook support and tell them to support this feature in Opera.

I tried to Identify it as Firefox, but it still doesn't work...
This bug is annoying, I even submitted a video about it.

It seems to work when you mask yourself as FF (horrid solution), but when you finaly press the "share" button, then, the previously tagged person becomes unformatted and untagged... So it's a mix between browser sniffing and an Opera bug...
MUCH NEEDED BUMP!

Wow, I just noticed that @tagging-people finally works again. No settings changed, Opera 10.61. Identifying as Opera.
Opera (with the js) and/or Facebook must have fixed it - hope it sticks!
Edit: Thanks!
Edit #2: Naturally, can everyone else confirm this?
