This is a very strange bug.  I don't know if I've done something drastically
wrong (I don't think I have), but I've tried to use both the Sort folder... and
Sort folder by name options that you get in the right click menu for bookmarks
in the sidebar, and instead of sorting the bookmarks alphabetically (A-Z), it
seems to just randomly move them about!  I can't see any pattern to its sorting
at all.  It's simply not sorting them alphabetically.  Clearly, this needs to be
fixed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open sidebar (F9).
2. Right click on a bookmark.
3. Click 'Sort folder by name'.

Actual Results:  
Bookmarks resorted, but seemingly randomly!

Expected Results:  
Bookmarks resorted in alphabetical order.

-> Bookmarks as the reporter commented that this happened outside of the sidebar
as well (via IRC)

That said this WFM on OS X 2003072903 Trunk & 1.5a
