OSNews is Exploring the Future of Computing

You all know that I don't particularly like Opera. I find the product to be lacking polish, over-complicated and without the marketing pizazz that has made Firefox a household name. That's just my personal opinion, and that opinion has garnered many complaints of unjustness. To that end, to present a fairer discussion I would like to put a simple question to the community: "What should Opera do?".

I am using it under KDE3.x.x and KDE 4.3.x as well as XP and it looks exactly how I want it to look - colour-wise, it integrates nicely with both versions of KDE and there is a huge list of skins for different OSes and DEs.

This is the problem. It requires a hand tooled theme to fit in. I spent hours making one for KDE 3.1 (keramik+crystal, available here: http://my.opera.com/community/customize/skins/info/?id=1717 ) but the moment I stopped using keramik it didn't match. I still use it, and Opera, but it's hell if you want it to look like the rest of your apps.
