These are the most important things for me - I won't switch without these:
[ul]- Ability to tear off a tab to create a new window
- We can now open a new tab page to our homepage, which is great - but I'd like an option to put the focus in the address bar after that page loaded
- Remove 'open link in a new tab' from the new tab mouse gesture - I don't care if I'm on a link, I always want to go to a new blank tab
- ability to remove back-forward-refresh-etc buttons
- ability to change the position of the search box, and to set it's search to 'find on page'
- smarter address completion - vivaldi always chooses a long address, when I'd like to go to the 'root' instead - take a look at how firefox does it
[/ul]

Panel Improvements:
Left pane is annoing. It can be improved very well.
Add option to itegrate left panel icons with the panel at down side of browser.I'm talking about this:
Why not add option to integrate down and left panel together?
Around 99% of time i do not need left panel, but around 95% of time i need panel at down.
All what i need from left panel is: bookmarks, and download buttons.So, why not add these buttons to bottom (down) panel?
Please add such option.How it can looks like:
vivaldi://settings
Why i need this?
I need to see always downloads & bookmarks buttons, but i do not want to see this ugly panel which remove really important pixels from websites. -

I need to see always downloads & bookmarks buttons, but i do not want to see this ugly panel which remove really important pixels from websites.even if you integrate it to the "downtown" panel, not everybody has it enabled and your idea will force people to have it enabled. the vivaldi team would have to make a bigger bar, because let's agree: a download button with 1/3 the original size? how am I suppose to click and better: how is a disabled person that has some trouble to move the arms will click it easily? so you'll need a bigger "downtown" panel… your idea gives more pixels horizontally, but vertically it will take some... so it's pretty much the same, to don't talk that would seem odd having those 4 buttons on the bottom of the browser alongside with those advanced tools...
and besides, what's the trouble with the bar? instead of showing on the site "I wanna be a big daddy"
it will show "I wanna be a big
daddy".
will you die to have to scroll more 3 or 4 lines? LOL -
better search field and suggestion
I use firefox, and firefox has a very powerful search field. a feature I love on the search field is, opon fresh instalation, firefox creates a baloon and asks you if you want Firefox to suggest websites. I will explain using an example.
▬___behavior on vivaldi
Vivaldi suggests the last website I visited that belongs to the domain. what I mean is: you visit http://www.wired.com/2016/08/shouldnt-go-mars-might-decimate-martians/ . when you search on the address bar the keyword "wired", vivaldi will auto complete with .com/2016/08/shouldnt-go-mars-might-decimate-martians/. so to go to wired.com, you first have to write it and enter the website, only than vivaldi is suggesting wired.com
basically vivaldi suggests the last website you visited that correspond to the keyword:
as you see, vivaldi suggests always the last one you visited related to the keyword, instead of the orange link: the website I really want…behavior on Firefox
you went to http://wired.com/2016/08/shouldnt-go-mars-might-decimate-martians/ . you closed it, now you write on the address bar "wired" and this is what firefox shows:
I didn't even went to wired.com, I searched "wired" right after entering the second link it appears on the screenshot, and firefox is already suggesting me the main website, wired.com, as well as showing me the history (the second link) and suggestions of common themes related to the "wired" word.see the difference? Vivaldi could suggest the main site of some link I clicked instead of the last page related I visited… sometimes it's a pain in the butt to have to write the full domain "fiwefirejdkvs.com" and than click backspace to delete the suggestion (or better saying: the last website I visited related to the keyword fiwefirejdkvs), while firefox barely I start writting "fiwefire" it is already suggesting fiwefirejdkvs.com (and not the subdomain I last visited: fiwefirejdkvs.com/creation-material).
I think the text is clear enough, maybe a bit messy since I have other things on my mind, but I think it's enough to understand my point.

Another thing I would like for 1.4 is further development of rounded corners of the UI, which you started but haven't finished yet, and there are even some problems like rounded tabs, Quick Commands and SD thumbnails not being rounded like they were in the first snapshot of 1.3.
Tab thumbnails, add bookmarks pop-up, rounded loading bar on both address bar and tabs, rounded bar under "Speed Dial" in SD page, rounded close button on tabs, etc.
Those fixes and new roundedness are things I'd like to see introduced in 1.4. Rounded corners were introduced in 1.3, were really good for the first snapshot, but got worse, and it feels incomplete. I'd like to see it be completed.

Requestingr x button at the end of the username field ("Email or Phone") on Facebook to allow quick deletion of password being inadvertently typed into that field.

Why i need this?
I need to see always downloads & bookmarks buttons, but i do not want to see this ugly panel which remove really important pixels from websites.Someone else already asked the same thing, but the left panel bar is NOT just another button bar… it's the edge of the panel itself! It's part of the UI for toggling associated UI items right next to it. It makes no sense to put them on the other side of the screen somewhere.
And there are going to be more panels coming, important ones like mail. And you can add your own web panels. So these panel buttons should definitely be where they are right now.
In future you might be able to add different buttons to different bars, so when that happens you can do what you want (then you'll have to request an option to never show the panel button bar!).
For now I think it's easiest to press F4 to hide the panel interface after using it (or activate the panel toggle in the settings).

Hi I already asked this before:
When opening the list of previous pages by right-clicking the back button, one should be able to open these links in a new/background tab. Chrome, Opera and Firefox do this as well and it's usefull.

Session Saving
• Being able to save sessions and open them later
Built In Referencing
•Being able to reference all tabs saved in a session -

I've got a couple requests:
Being able to drag and drop links (not tabs) into a new tab in a new window.
Seems complex? Well, here's a video of what's happening right now: https://a.pomf.cat/mbjrkd.mp4
As you can see, the drag and drop sort of works, but it replaces the currently open tab, and that's not really useful. Please give us a better option for this!Mind that this is the 1.2 version, it might be working in 1.3 snapshots… can't really test that now.
My second request is way simpler: being able to increase the size of favicons, so if we have a "collection" of pinned tabs, they're easier to click! And, no, increasing the UI size doesn't help a lot.

It would be awesome if the divider between tiled pages could be moved.
I currently develop my website this way, one side shows the final page and the other shows my CMS interface with Vivaldi being fullscreen. Working that way works much better for me than having two windows open side by side since Vivaldi remembers the layout the next time I open it, but often it would be great to move the divider line between the tiles to make one or the other side larger for testing or see things better.Thank you very much - Vivaldi totally rocks.
Cheers,
Tom

Many interesting wishes have already been mentioned here, but I have three more regarding notes:
- Ability to give titles to notes
- Make cross-links possible in order to reference/link to other notes (here a unique note-title could be helpful).
- Ability to add tags to notes
All in all the idea would be to add some functionality, that is possible in a TiddlyWiki

Middle click on the tab bar opens new tab:
Oh neat, I didn't know this was a thing.
How?
This setting is configurable at vivaldi://settings/appearance/
I don't want to install addons. Vivaldi is not my main browser.
I realize it's less than ideal, but is it really so bad to have extensions?
-
My requests in no particular order:
The current Opera has a flag called "Background tab throttling", which is enabled by default but can be disabled. The standard setting in any Chromium-based browser is that timers are only executed once per second in tabs that are not in focus. Firefox doesn't do this like that and sadly it messes up some websites whose JavaScript isn't coded very well. In short, please add this advanced feature!
Add an option to open all links entered into the address bar in a new tab automatically (unless the current tab is empty/the quick dial/start page). An advanced setting on this: open the link in a new tab only if the domain of the entered link does not match with the page loaded in the active tab.
Please let me drag+drop the extension icons on the address bar to sort them according to my own preferences. There is, as far as I know anyway, no way to do that in any other Chromium-based browser, so it would make for a nice usability feature for Vivaldi.
Modify tab-stacking as it was once introduced in the original Opera 11 browser. I'm talking about the way to expand the stacked group of tabs here, because it is impossible to use Vivaldi's current stacking feature with more than a small handful of tabs.
Add more tab/tab-bar settings for power users. On the very top of the list are fixed-width and multi-row tab options.
Not really a feature, but please please please fix some of the basic functionality of a web-browser I've been waiting for since the beta. Among them are the "view page source" function which always erroneously shows the login page, or the lack of a way to refresh a page with a POST request.

I just recently switched from Chrome to Vivaldi, so I only have a few:
Mouse Gestures
Please stop with the linked new tab/open link gesture. On sites with man links, using the gesture for new foreground or background tabs almost always result in openng a link. Give us separate options for the links. I am currently using an extension called crxMouse Chrome Gestures rather than the built in gestures and the only reason is that this behaviour is incredibly frustrating to me.
This extension actually has a few more options that might be interesting:
[ul]- Super drag: Gestures that are activated when you drag a link or selected text.
- Gestures for copying selected text, the current URL or the URL of a link to the clipboard.
- Wheel gestures (right/left click+mouse wheel), for example to switch tabs.
[/ul]
Exactly my experience with "Open link in new tab (over a link)".
Example when it is impossible to open new blank tab with mouse gesture
When searching google images - there's no space without link - so new tab always loads some image. There's no workaround for this - except not using original mouse gestures.
If I wanted to open it in new tab, I'd have clicked my middle mouse button. It's absolutely useless to use mouse gesture on that.No need to make extra features on gestures to solve this experience breaker, just make the "Open link in new tab (over a link)" optional.

A Master Password to encrypt all other passwords.
A better password mgmt-function would be nice but the Master Password function would be a great 1st step.
