Yes. Up until Opera 8.54, going full screen meant losing the 'screen'  
media styling in Opera. So Opera-conscious developers would have used  
either no media, or 'all', or 'screen,projection'. Since 9.0, that is not  
happening anymore, and Opera treats full screen as 'screen' when no  
'projection' styles are used.
