Hi Mike.

I don't know Opera but this is my 2 bit "guesswork" ;-)

Does the Deep Search decision making algorithm compute a confidence numerical 
score?

If not can compute it?

So, normalize the score between 0 and 1 and print it in the report: 0=false 
decode, 1=sure decode.

Useful for human accept-reject decision  and most useful for debugging.
