I would like to see the ability to manage several separate lists of bookmarks. I justify this in the following need for at least three separate lists: 1) a systemwide list managed by the super-user 2) a bookmarks list for the workgroup / project one is working on 3) a personal bookmarks list you might also want more than one of 2) if you are involved in more than one project

reporter: is there any difference between this request and bug 104184? "[RFE] UI for bookmark file location preference"

Alfonso: Not the same thing at all :-) bug #104184 deals with the location of a *single* bookmarks file that might be implictly shared between NS4 and Mozilla. I'm proposing bookmark files that in case 1) are explicitly shared by all users on a computer/network and only administered by a super-user case 2) are explicitly shared by all members of a group/project and administered by this case 3) private bookmarks administered only by the owner of the profile futhermore, my proposal includes the ability to have several bookmark files loaded concurrently -- you might liken it to the abilty to have several email accounts or newsgroup accounts concurrently. In fact, I think an interface along the lines of the Mail/News administration would be appropiate.
Summary: several separate bookmarks lists → [RFE] several separate bookmarks lists

Bjarne: 104184 isn't really about sharing the bookmarks between NS4 and Moz (see the dupped bug 107130), it's just to be able to select where do you want to store your bookmarks. This way you can keep one file with (case a), other with (case b) etc... I agree that 104184 doesn't deal with the ability to load various files at the same time, from my point of view this is possibly bug 72413 "permit remote HTTP/FTP URLS for bookmarks datasources", as long as it also allows to load the files from the local network.

hmmmmm ... I guess I'm going for the whole package: -- any number of bookmark files -- stored anywhere : local computer , LAN , WAN , web , ... -- using any protocol : file , ftp , http , ldap , acap , ... with shared bookmark files you will - of course - have the same problems as you have when updating databases : concurrency, read/write access etc. I think my FRE might be considered a super-set of all the previous mentioned RFEs :-)

In schools and businesses, it would be very handy to be able to set up a 2nd common bookmarks file that either appears above personal bookmarks, or is merged with personal bookmarks. This 2nd bookmark file could (probably should) be read-only from browser. (ie: Removing or editing bookmarks from the common file will result only in non-persistent changes in memory, but will not be written back to the file.) A nice set of prefs to go along with this would be something like: browser.bookmarks.common.file browser.bookmarks.common.from_url (allow retrieving from a web site) browser.bookmarks.common.mergetype (1=merged, 2=above, 3=below) (how common bookmarks are merged with user pref bookmarks) Unfortunately this doesn't sound like something trivial. It would, however, be a big help to schools and businesses deploying Mozilla/Firebird extensively.

MASS-CHANGE: This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state. If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way. If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar). If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state. Query tag for this change: mass-UNCONFIRM-20090614
