This is a pretty tiny nitpick, but I haven't seen this posted about so far and it bugs me ever-so-slightly. While the new spoilers look great, they fade back a few seconds after being revealed. This makes reading long pieces of spoilered text difficult, as well as editing text with multiple instances of spoilers in it. I'm not sure if this is intended functionality, it could be a bug on my end. In which case, consider this post a bug report, I'm running the latest build of Opera with no user extensions.
Anyway, if it is intended functionality, I'd understand why. Accidentally hovering over spoilered text you didn't mean to read and having it stay revealed on the screen would be counter-productive. The act of hovering over text is a lot more sensitive than the deliberate click the old system required.
My suggestion, if possible, would be to allow the spoilered text to also be visible when highlighted. As it stands now, highlighted text will still yield to the spoil blur. If you could make it that spoilered text is permanently visible while highlighted, you'd make a very minuscule improvement that I would appreciate.
Another issue with the new spoilers is, if any part of the text inside the spoiler has any additional formatting applied to it or is written in multiple paragraphs, the spoiler will get split into multiple parts. Makes it a real pain in the ass to read through the entire thing.
Need to change it back to the old system where you have to click to reveal spoilers. Having it be mouse-over was a terrible idea, it can only lead to accidental spoiling because you ended up scrolling over some spoiler text without meaning to. Or just moving your mouse across the screen in general.
