Installed Opera for testing and it somehow set itself as my default browser without asking. Anyone know how it manages this somewhat shady settings change? Mac OS 10.9

.. correction; Opera 21 shows domain + path by default, hides protocol and query strings. (On feedback, we added setting to show full URL).

@brucel that sounds like a good balance between informing the user and visual noise — should also help discourage the use of query string parameters in permalink design too, hopefully.
When using the display: table trick to move elements around, beware that Opera+FF require the fake-table element to also have table-layout: fixed set in order for descendant img { max-width: 100% } to work. As pointed out by Scott Anderson #css #responsive

@BarnabyWalters last time I used mozilla it was poor experience (2011), but validation of extensions was a manual process by someone.

.@john_nye all the stores I’ve submitted extensions to do manual reviews. Mozilla:
- gives two review options (fast and slow),
- runs loads of automated tests in a web interface to suggest things to fix,
- gives you the choice of which review to use, and creates a public URL from which the extension can be installed while the review’s in process
Safari and Opera have fairly basic, boring forms for uploading stuff, and are extremely picky and unclear about exact image sizes for screenshots and icons. There’s also no “review in progress” page, but otherwise acceptable.
Obviously I’ve not been able to actually submit an extension to the Chrome store, but I’d hope that it’s a damned good experience for $5. If they are doing automatic reviews, then the price becomes even more counter-intuitve. If they’ve automated it, surely it’s cheaper and quicker for them?
