1. ANY download/transfer, when comes to 99.9% CRASHES - ALWAYS
Cannot reproduce on Windows 10, perhaps I need some more detailed description how to reproduce it (or try with Windows 7).
2. Transfer window/tab, CANT resize 1st column while other ones can
Yeah, it's annoying side effect of restrictions set to first and last columns.
3. while opening magnet link, there is no association (doesn't read system values)
I'm not sure if it is possible to properly associate these under Windows, I'll ask our Windows expert.
4. unable to save ANY site with its contents (css, js), but just plain/alone xHTML
That's a known missing feature, do to it properly we need changes in QtWebKit.
5. most HTML-5 codecs are missing (check html5.com)
MS decided to support only proprietary codecs in Media Foundation, I think that you cna get WebM support by using this:
https://www.webmproject.org/ie/
I'm also considering use of GStreamer multimedia backend (already used by newest build for Windows XP), which also allows some extra features but at the cost of bigger size of binaries...
1. would be nice to have a button that would add page/tab to speed dial (just like you can bookmark a page)
I don't think that we need dedicated action, but I can think about allowing to create it by specifying parameters for action to add bookmark (since Start Page entries are basically bookmarks).
2. some internal crash log generator, as apparently Otter chooses to crash without any crash log or error or even system error for Event Viewer
We have something like that, but it seems that it was missing in that package, probably lost during update to Qt 5.9.1.
3. right click on tab for: close tabs to left/right
I can consider these too, but no promises.
4. when image is in web site, right click to open image in current tab
Already doable by creating custom menu/webWidget.json with modified actions (yeah, we need some documentation for users).
Changes in the past week are mainly sourcecode cleanups and maintenance. The end-user won't notice the difference, so building new packages would be a waste of finite resources. Just a guess...
Correct.
