I understand some people like to have them together and probably most people don't care. But what is the point of not giving us the option to keep them separate?
It doesn't come up too often, but about once a day or so, I miss the old feature. I like the ability to type something in the search bar and keep it there as I switch or open new tabs. More often, I start typing something in the search but don't search before I realize that I need to copy the url from the page I'm currently on, but I can't find that url unless I refresh the page. A minor inconvenience, but my old habits are still here years later. I hope that future versions will restore this feature, as Opera is overall a great browser. But as it stands I am really more comfortable using Firefox.
