Archived from groups: opera>linux (more info?)

I normally use Opera, but I noticed in Firefox that I can view all
the passwords I've entered. I have to enter my master password in
order to do so.

Is there a similar feature in Opera? Or, is it purposely missing
because it's a security hole?

I don't know about the reasoning, but I do know about this:
