Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10

@Pesala Maybe add an option to perform "save as" as default dialog (or at least as default choice) when downloading a file? As long as there is no links panel, downloading many files is hard enough already, and I really don't have any directory where I put downloads by default (yes, I could create a directory for vivaldi downloads and then sort the files afterwards, but filenames are a mess enough already ... and I guess we don't have to talk about the "save button"-convenience then anymore ;))
I understood that you want MIME for file handlers (-> which action to perform on which MIME type / which file extension to add to a file), or did I misunderstand you? I guess this is not closely related ...
//
Just to give you an image of my standard procedure for saving stuff without links panel: open a bunch of downloadable content in background tabs and then do them one after another. If I have to change a folder, I do this and then all the subsequent tabs will save as to this folder. And instead of just (2 Enter Enter)* key strokes [2 for Ctrl+Tab], I have to also Tab here, which is pretty inconvenient ... -
please add a speed meter in the download manager that would be a great addition !
-
please add different shapes of thumbnail for speed dial like cricle , ovals etc. shape speed dial thumbnail i think that would be a great addition
-
i think an option to download files directly on cloud( drive,drophbox etc.) would be a great addition

@pettern You didn't say it's impossible.
I'm patient... 
-
@pafflick Of course it's possible, but it'll be definitely confusing to have private tabs.

Intergrated Messenger sidebar
Just like Opera
There is no necessity! I think many users would hate this because many do not use it for example and do not want these sites by default.
At Vivaldi you can by any site! Much better!
Note: Access the Messenger site and add it to the panel. -
Be able to drag files from the downloads bar
Enable downloaded files to be selected and dragged on to normal application file targets or onto a browser tab that's set up to accept files being dropped onto it.
-
@pafflick The Classic Opera browser used to allow users to select the bookmarks they want to backup and save it into a portable file that they can rename. It would not work on notes, though.

Adding a button in the downloads tab that leads directly to the folder
It could be nice to add a button in the download list for each downloaded files that could lead us directly to the folder where the files are.
Instead of doing right click -> go to the folder -
This feature is implemented, courtesy of a Chrome update.

@iAN-CooG This is related to another request on this thread to have Vivaldi remember the last download location and default to that.
-
Tab Customization - Currently, an user could only change the roundness of the tabs.
What I propose is the option to change the angle of the tab
-
Home Page Customization - Right now, there are only few customization available for the home page.
What I propose is making it OPTIONAL for users:
-Weather
-News
-Time
-Speed Dial
-Social MediaAny of them can be enabled/disabled via settings.
-
Privacy Customizations-There's really not a lot of customizations for privacy to be honest.
What I propose are builtin options that can be enabled/disabled:
-Block Ads/Tracking
-HTTPS Everywhere
-Block Phishing and Malware (Not Google's because Google's own version sends data to the mothership)
-Block Scripts
-Fingerprinting ProtectionAgain, this can be enabled / disabled via settings
-
Bookmark search behavior - collapsed/expanded state should be remembered:
Let's say you have one or more expanded bookmark sub tree(s) and search for something. Now it correctly finds it, so far so good. But when you clear the search field, all bookmark folders are collapsed.
But what ideally should happend is that the original open/closed folder structure should be there plus, like in Opera 12, if you selected one of the findings (bookmark or folder) the sub-tree to this entry should be open additionally and the selected entry should still be selected!
The benefit of this is f.e. that you can search for a folder name, select it, clear the search and so "found" all the bookmarks in it. An IRL example (of many): You would order Pizza -> search for your bookmark folder "Pizza delivery" -> found all restaurants (even that one without "pizza" in there names or links).

It actually updates a blacklist at Vivaldi's startup and checks sites against that static list, AFAIK. You can already disable reporting the errors to Google through Vivaldi's UI.
-Block Scripts
Though not directly accessible through Vivaldi's UI, you can access content settings via vivaldi://chrome/settings and disable JS globally, then enable it on a per-site basis using the site badge.
For more fine-grained control (i.e. allow JS per request domain, not only main URL), the uMatrix extension comes to mind. (I would myself like a uMatrix-like generic blocker built-in, but I doubt it'll come)

@IcePanther I mean i dont really want to install extensions. I prefer things like built in some of the other browsers lol
-
Hardware acceleration messes with the menus on my laptop, making them unreadable and unusable. It would help if there was a way to turn it on/off with a shortcut. Otherwise, the browser is unusable to me on some systems (Manjaro for sure).
