When I reading some text on the web, one of the greatest pains for me
is that often the texts are too small, and the text has only a portion
of the screen and other parts of the screen are filled with
unnecessary stuffs like ads, pictures, lists, other articles and so
on. Of course I can zoom the entire page (thanks to the Opera's full-
page zoom which now other browsers have copied from), but that means
everything gets large, even those I don't need, and I have to manually
move around the page to set to the portion I want to read.

Mobile Safari in iPhone or iPod Touch has a handy feature. If you
double tap a portion of the page, it automatically recognizes the
section and zoom to it (if you have used it before, you should know
what I mean). I think if Opera has this feature, it would be greatly
helpful to read on the web pages. How about right-double-clicking for
this action? Well, I don't know there could be better combinations...

The bookmarklet works pretty good. Bookmark the link, then drag the
bookmark to where you want the button to be.
