Feature requests for Vivaldi 1.14
-
We need a documented JS api for invoking core module functions.
(i.e. much more support for UI customization so we're not so limited by what the core team can/will accomplish alone, nor by the need to focus on features according to popularity)
We'll accomplish a whole lot more for way more use cases (especially of power users) if the focus is on supporting free-form customization while keeping the 1st-party core lean, simple, and unopinionated (perhaps even taking a modular approach to 1st-party foundational features.)

Option to disable auto-fill
I've noticed that neither Chrome nor Vivaldi has a working option to prevent the browser from filling out forms on its own. I've tried as internet says, but no solution actually worked.
Just to make it clear:
I do want the browser to remember my passwords
I do want the browser to fill out forms when I clicked to do so
I do not want the browser to fill out forms without any action by me (which is curretly the case, no matter what option)
I do not want do delete all my saved passwords. -
Speed Dial Lock
Please provide an option to lock/protect speed dial to prevent accidental thumb moves, removes, refreshes (one of the most annoying is accidental F5 on speed dial tab which causes reloading ALL thumbnails). Old good Opera has an advanced speed dial state parameter for locking speed dial. -
Change the look of the Tab Bar when using Left/Right
When the Tab Bar is on the side (instead of top/bottom) the "New Tab" plus sign is near the bottom and oddly spaced with the "Close Tab" trashcan icon.
I think it would be more functional and logical if the 'New Tab" icon was at the top of the Tab list, above the pinned tabs, while keeping the "Close" icon at the bottom. Also more uniform spacing would be more attractive.
Currently:
New idea:
-
Keyboard shortcuts for bookmarks. Maybe (not necessarily, just my personal preference) copy the behavior of a Firefox extension called Speed Dial by Josep del Rio, which is: hold Ctrl, type a number, release Ctrl to open that bookmark. Hold Ctrl-Shift, type a number, release Ctrl-Shift to open that bookmark in a new tab.
-
Current time and date in tab bar
-
Automatically show Panels on Mouseover
Not using the toggle, but just on moving the mouse cursor to the extreme edge of the screen or browser window.
-
Notes Tab on Start Page
An extra tab on the start page showing a "full page version" of the notes panel, like the bookmarks and history tabs.
Maybe set up like this:┌───────────────┐ │list of notes │ ├──────┬────────┤ │editor│markdown│ │for │preview │ │note │ │ ├──────┴────────┤ │url,attachments│ └───────────────┘
-
'Close all tabs' in the context in the tab bar
If the bookmarks bar is full, make the bookmarks smaller instead of the extension arrow
So exactly as it is done in the tab bar. -
Resources Abuse Warning & Blocker Manager/Panel
Coin mining is currently running rampage in various website, (Ad) blocker is no longer an OPTION, but a NECESSARY feature to protect our hardware. All noobs need this protection ASAP.
-
Monitor & limit CPU each tab; if exceeded limit for over 30 secs, show a warning popup to allow terminate js/video/audio that cause high CPU.
-
Blocker Dashboard in panel/tab. Please make it easy to access, don't hide the GUI inside some obscure settings.
-
Anti-anti Blocker. Cat & mouse game, better block 'em b4 they try to block u.
Advice for everyone: For now, use Nano Adblocker + Nano Defender (anti-anti blocker). It's not perfect, but it's better than nothing.

Ability to mute tabs when no sound is playing on that tab.
Currently, if a chat app has a notification sound which only dings once in a while - I'm unable to mute that because no sound is playing most of the time. It's impossible to "catch" it.
Options that exist currently are prioritize sound (which doesn't work very well) and mute all (which i don't want to mute my music or youtube). Clicking the mute icon in the tab also is hard to get when the sound is sporadic.
