When I have the Sidebar open and select Add in the Sidebar the Bookmark
management window that is opened is truncated.  The scrolling window for the
list of existing bookmarks is only 5 lines long.  When makes it really strange
is that scroll bar in the inner window allows scrolling down around 30 lines or
while still showing only the five entries.  The mouse is also out of the scroll
display also.  The floating outer window settings appear to have "hidden" the
scrolling window.  The following sort of shows what I am seeing.

I first noticed this is 1.8a3 and it is also in 1.8a4.  You have to select Add
from the bookmarks side bar.  Control-W and Alt-F4 do not appear to work on the
window either.

Ok, so resolving as WFM. Don't forget that the current versions of Mozilla 1.8 are now called SeaMonkey 1.0. :-)
