[General] Opera Debugging Thread

Opera has a significant problem with polygons and SVGPointList.
When points is set inside lively.scene.Polygon.setVertices(), numberOfItems
always remains at zero.

I've tried a couple of things but no luck yet. I've tried calling
consolidate on the SVGPointList after points get set. But I don't know
what consolidate does actually. ;-) And I've tried instead using
points.appendItem(svgPoint). No luck there yet.

this.rawNode.points.consolidate();
var svgPoint = new SVGPoint(p.x, p.y);
this.rawNode.points.appendItem(svgPoint);

(All of this is with document.documentURI fixed, skipMostExamples:
true, skipAllExamples: true)

Also, this is how to disable caching in Opera.

Doesn't seem to work - but that's how you do it.
