Reproducible on: Nightly 36.0a1 (2014-11-17).
Affected platform(s): Windows 7 64-bit, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32-bit, Mac OS X 10.9.5.

STR:
1. Launch Firefox using a clean profile.
2. Bookmark a few random websites.
3. Open Library by clicking the bookmarks button → "Show All Bookmarks".
4. With "All Bookmarks" selected, click the search bar and search for an existing bookmark.
5. Right click on that bookmark and choose "Cut".
6. Without changing the current location, press CTRL (CMD) + V.

Expected result: There are no errors thrown for this action.

Actual result: The following JS error is thrown in the Browser Console:

in Promise-backend.js:873:0.

Additional notes:
* This might be a recent regression, as I was unable to replicate it on Aurora 35.0a2 (2014-11-16). I'll follow up with a regression range on this matter as soon as possible.
* As previously stated, this error is thrown across platforms, Windows, Linux, Mac.
* For a bit of context, see Bug 1095069#c19.

it should not be possible to cut and paste into a bookmarks search. The behavior looks ok, but Cut should be disabled

Could not reproduce on latest Nightly 126.0a1 on Mac 12.6, nor on Win11x64 using FF build 125.0b1. Closing as Works for me for now.
