Official method to store custom modifications in browser. It would be sweet if they could survive updates. And a switch to toggle them?
-
Add option in context menu to open tab in different browser (i.e. Edge). Because Vivaldi still has some serious problems with some websites - that way people can still use Vivaldi as everyday browser and switch to other browser only when they encounter problematic website.
-
Option to only show notification on failed download.
-
Add option to search for two different phrases on one page (higlighted with two different colors).
Or allow regular expressions. -

Edited: because Links Panel is requested again below.

Add option in settings to disable autofill in text boxes on pages.
-
Per site proxy settings.

Highlight new features in settings
I think it would be especially useful in the Snapshot releases. Sometimes we're too lazy to read the changelogs or we just want to quickly find the new features in settings - that would come in handy then.
This could be achieved in many ways, like e.g. adding a "New!" flag, highlighting it with a different color etc. This highlight could be persistent (until the next update) or could disappear once the user views the tab containing new settings (for a certain amount of time), hovers over it or make changes to it.

Portable version
There are portable versions of Chrome, so it should be possible with Vivaldi, but preferably, we shouldn't rely on some 3rd party software.
-
Download Vivaldi updates in background (option to enable/disable this), and install them on next restart. At the moment the update is being discarded when you quit Vivaldi.

Settings Dialogue Should Remember it's Size and Active Tab
Currently, if the UI Zoom is not 100% the settings dialogue always needs to be resized manually.
