Opera has released an alpha build of their upcoming 9.5 release. "Following the release of Opera 9 last year, we re-wrote Opera's rendering engine for the coming Opera 9.5 release. As a result, Opera 9.5 contains more than a year's worth of speed, standards and performance improvements."

Thanks a lot!
Now, they only have to:
- allow unclosing a window (not possible yet I've looked).
- making possible than when you close a tab with the mouse it goes to the next tab on the right (as FF does, it's customisable for the keyboard, but not for the mouse AFAIK)
- disable the scrolling when you click and miss a link (I've not really looked for this).
and I'd be happy with Opera's UI.

It's not built-in, but there is a custom button to close a page and move to the next page to the right, instead of moving to the previous page.

See Page & Window Control Buttons > Close Page & Switch to Next One, just drag it up to one of your toolbars.

My only grip with Opera is its UI which has some annoying warts that prevent it to be truly great: for exemple Opera can reflow a webpage so that it fits your window's width which is really nice but you have to do it page per page, there's no way to toggle a switch 'fit width' to have it permanently: a great feature spoiled by a poor UI choice (and that's not the only one).
Tools > Preferences > Web Pages > Check "Fit to Width"
Please do research first.
