Maybe it is an in built Website Authoring Platform, that can be used to create standard compliant pages.

I do hope it is developer tools. As I don’t use Opera Mini, it would have no effect on me if this is what the [not affecting everyone] meant. Developer tools would be immensely helpful to me.

I’ve noticed that Kestrel registers the .WGT file extension under Windows as type “Opera Widget”.

If Dragonfly was dev tools, it might be nice to put an “Edit” command there to maybe open Widget files in some kind of debugging mode.

I bet for the Developer Tools aswell, though Qasim made a good point.

(Though most logical would be it’s something to do with my website )

Øyvind Ø, I don't know what they do, but they're listed on our mobile partners page.

I can't remember seeing Opera Watch writing anything about Opera working together with Red Bend on the new mobile platform that can update it self. Maybe ... - ØØ -

Why would Opera announce developer tools at a media/entertainment conference. Sounds like this could be some sort of media delivery platform.

Maybe its a normal working autofill.

Perhaps, its not dev tools. Chris Mills, Developer Relations Manager, said that the first beta would be released in the 2nd half of 2008. I can't imagine the first beta coming out then and still going final in 2008. Based on his previous post, the functionality will still be incomplete then. Maybe this is finally some insight into the 2007 recap of "We made 2 major milestones for some secret projects".
