Galeon has mouse gestures. I'm only slowly getting used to actually using them, but it has them.

not F12, but one of the main menus up next to file, edit, etc. is "Settings" a quick drop-down set of toggles for the options you want to be able to switch frequently. (Java, javascript, pop-ups, image loading.)

Nice tabs? Galeon has nice tabs. I concede the superiority of Opera tabs over those in certain other browsers, but not over the ones in Galeon.

Ctrl-shift-click? Not the same key combo, but the way I have my prefs set I can do the same thing. For me, it's middle-click. Don't remember off the top of my head how to make the new windows open in the foreground.

Comes with the full Mozilla DOM support, too. If Opera 7 is as good as its advertising, though, I might have to fall back on "My browser is open source and yours isn't," but right now I don't see a reason to switch even if both were open-source.
