1. Too hard to move bookmarks around. It used to be simple but now is a disaster and so confusing that I now put bookmarks into apple folders and click on them! What a mess!
2. Old way of bookmark going to bottom of list was good. New system of forcing into unsorted bookmark file is a mess.
3. You guys have to fix this on your own into a simpler system like it used to be. There is no way in a bug list I can explain it all. Just use it... it is bumbling mess!

Duplicate of Bug 423617?
This bug has a workaround in comment 3 and it wouldn't surprise me if there were extensions for this at AMO.
Forgot to add:
1. That it is now SLOW to add bookmarks. Must wait on bookmarks to be found, etc.. 
2. Add bookmarks option sometimes does not show up as it is greyed out!
only one report/request per bug, please.

I have seen reports of this, but quickly figured it out to be the Library actually being selected.  Mac makes it kind of confusing with their unattached Menu method. Anyway, with Library menu open things like Add bookmark aer supposed to be greyed out.  Make sure the browser is in focus.
