URL paste only works if sidebar has focus
 

In earlier versions of OmniWeb, you could bring a window to the front and as long as nothing had text focus (e.g. an edit box) just hit command-v to open a new tab with the URL in the clipboard. In SP7 this works, but only if you click on the sidebar first.

Does this describe your issue?
