    There is one thing that has seriously inhibited me from looking seriously at Opera:
    I can't figure out how to make a cookie whitelist (the "Exceptions" list in Firefox). The best I can find is Allowing/Denying cookies on a per-site basis.

    Time out" and "standing in the corner" are the same thing. Not quite. Time out far me meant I had to stay on my bed without access to toys, books, etc. One could pass the time with a reasonably good imagination. Pens became space ships and the ceiling fan was a Death-Star-like space station, for example. When in a corner (facing the wall), the best you could do was listen to the rest of the family carry on with their lives or look for the equivalent of cloud images on the walls. Fortunately, my parents never caught on that the corner was the more unpleasant punishment.
