That's precisely why I said "unless it's relevant to the Mixins
proposal".  ^_^  If it's unrelated parsing bugs, like Opera 11
incorrectly parsing character escapes in some situations, that should
be reported directly to Opera and/or be brought up in a separate
thread; in this thread it would simply be clutter, and be harder to
search for later than if it had its own, appropriately titled, thread.
