It was picture perfect
Kept the nose on the centerline, the gear did not collapse. He used no reverse thrust upon "roll out" (scrape out!) to minimize loading on the gear. The plane burned fuel for three hours to keep it as light as possible, and his approach was a long straingh in final, to facilitate having a very stable, controlled approach.
I guess the Airbus cannot dump fuel. It was a great landing and a great job by the flight crew.

One swedish newspaper reported that they did in fact dump fuel.
