I am pretty certain you could add an infinite number of browser-specific redirects here, but I am a bit surprised that Opera would fail to work with the methods already used. The authentication system should probably be reworked and I am hoping to get a bit of work done this autumn. I have several changes pending that need to be applied in order to support some of the new features committed to GNATS after the 4.0 release. I have had quite a few interesting patches submitted to me over the last year, so it is probably time to start searching my inboxes and start doing some real work again, especially now that GNATS development seems to have accelerated.
