Actually looking at your subject line, you indicated you wanted to know  
what kind of process it was, which I gladly told you.
Second it's a wrapper script around stuff in the /usr/lib/browser-plugins/

Also,

What version of Opera etc.. I'm able to see it just fine on my machine  
running ps aux:

ps aux | grep -v grep | grep  opera | awk '{ print $11 }'
/usr/lib/opera/opera
/usr/lib/opera/operapluginwrapper-ia32-linux
/usr/lib/opera/operaplugincleaner
