Will Opera ever work on TA again?

I've recently switched my primary desktop OS from Win 7 to Linux (openSUSE). I've found myself using Opera quite a bit as I like its default fonts considerably more than Firefox's, and I've never liked Chrome at all. Opera used to work well on TexAgs - until the recent re-vamp. Now it can't post. When I try, the window that I am using to edit this pops up. It looks right, but I can't type in it.

1. Is TA aware of this?
2. If so, do you care?

TIA

EDIT:
For the record, I am using Opera 12.16 x64 and openSUSE 13.1 x64 (kernel 3.11.10-21-desktop).

We do not officially support Opera. If we can catch-up a bit in our development list, I'll take a look at any obvious bugs I can fix.

I use opera, too.

It appears that you have to click right on the exact spot where the typing will start. Otherwise, it doesn't want to work.

What I sometimes have to do is click the BBCODE button to start a post since it seems a bit more lenient.

What do you know? I clicked 'BBCODE' and I am typing this in Opera 12x.

I found an old virtual machine that I have with Opera 11x, and that can post on TexAgs with no issues at all (i.e. you don't even have to click 'BBCODE'). It isn't maintained any more, so I'm not going to downgrade on my regular desktop, but I am guessing whatever the bug is, it's minor.
