User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021220 Chimera/0.6+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021220 Chimera/0.6+

I imported a bookmark file from the previous version of chimera.  I then deleted
all my application support preferences.  Installed the nightly build of chimera
(2002122004).  I imported my old bookmarks that had been exported.  I moved the
imported bookmarks out of the internet explorer favorites folder that they were
put into.  I switched to the finder, selected my favorites export file that had
just been imported, and then moved it to the trash can.  I deleted the trash,
upon which chimera immediately crashed.  (Is there an open file handle in
chimera that's not getting released after an import of the bookmarks file?)

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.export bookmarks to the desktop
2.delete the chimera preferences in application support folder
3.restart chimera so that it re-creates the needed application support files
4.import the bookmarks that were just exported earlier
5.move the imported bookmarks out of the internet explorer favorites folder
6.delete the duplicate favorites folders that exist in the bookmarks sidebar
7.switch to the finder and delete the exported bookmarks file off the desktop
(i.e. move it to the trash)
8.Empty the trash can.
Actual Results:  
Chimera crashed.

Expected Results:  
Nothing.  Deleting a file off the desktop shouldn't cause the browser to crash.
Confirming for testing.
