And "less /BLAH/dpi-screen-window.html" shows the expected data?

And "view source" in opera shows empty as well?

Sounds pretty mysterious to me too.  If the user running opera is able
to read the file, then opera should be able to read the file.  And if
opera is able to read the file, it should be able to render it as well.

Sounds like a bug.  I don't have that in my version, though (which is
the current development version, of course.  So it is possible that it
has been fixed.)

Does left-drag mark + middle-click paste work (instead of left-drag mark
+ menu->copy + menu->paste)?
