Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0
Build ID: 20160502172042

Steps to reproduce:

I read the API documentation for WebExtensions > chrome.bookmarks,  https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/bookmarks.


Actual results:

I did not find any capability to *get* or *set* bookmark Tags.


Expected results:

Because WebExtensions are slated to replace the Add-Ons SDK, and because bookmarks extensions which sync bookmarks require access to all bookmark attribute, either

(1) The chrome.bookmarks API implemented by WebExtensions for Firefox should contain additional functions to *get* and *set* bookmark Tags, or,

(2) There should be a link to some Mozilla policy statement which publicly states that bookmark Tags obsolete and will be removed in some future version of Firefox.

Note: There is some discussion of the future of Tags in Bug 1225916.
