I'm a techie, not a nettie

Hello all,
Welcome to my new homepage.
I am the lead developer on Opera's cache, network, and security code, such as HTTP, SSL/TLS encryption, cookies, privacy, and general URL handling.
I'll primarily use this page to post infrequent articles about Opera related subjects in the areas I work with.
One area of these posts will be about things we have shipped, at least in a TP-release, so don't expect any leaks about new features
.
Another area will concern the more long range standardization efforts I'm participating in.
The small print: Opinions stated here are my own, and do not necessarily represent my employer's views. Opinions are subject to change without notice, in particular when I find (or am pointed to) better information, unless I decide to be stubborn. Articles may contain spelling mitsakes, errors grammatical, or other mistakes; in such cases the correct meaning is what I meant to write, not what is in the text; when in doubt, ask.

Why not handle URL string without http://, ftp://, etc. (all known protocols) as default search?
So, if my default search engine is Google (or enything else) I can type in address field only this: "fastest browser"
If I want to search in Yahoo I type as it works now: "y fastest browser"
I get errors while searching couple times a day just because forgot to put "g" before string to search.
I'm shure that this improvement will be highly appreciate by many users.

The basic problem is: Would all uses want us to send anything they type in the address field to the default search engine? Personally I think not.
