Excellent question ;-)

I still use it as my primary browser, but that will eventually have to  
change if support for the document function is delayed much longer.  I  
can't delay the release of the Atomictalk[1] client-side XSLT-based MVC  
framework for too much longer, and while it presently works just peachy  
inside of Opera[2], this is only because I have been building the code  
base w/o it to ensure that everything worked properly inside of Opera (it  
does) before extracting all of the "views" and "models" into their own  
module files, taking *FULL* advantage of browser caching to ensure only  
the views and data sources and their respective mappings/bindings  
necessary to build out each page are accessed at runtime.

As soon as the project is ready to be launched in a v0.1 format (it's  
ready now, as a matter of fact, though would like to finish out a few more  
features before I launch it) then support for Opera, unfortunately, will  
have to be dropped until such time as support for the document function  
makes it into at very least a weekly build.
