User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:55.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/55.0
Build ID: 20170816210852

Steps to reproduce:

Searching for a given bookmark in the "Bookmarks manager" window using the Search field.


Actual results:

Result(s) display but...


Expected results:

...I don't know (since FF doesn't provide that information)  WHERE to find a given bookmark in my looong list of bookmarks, which are organized in numerous "folders" and "subfolders".
Some bookmarks were created years ago and sometimes I wish to reorganize them. Problem: I don't always remember where they are stored in my bookmarks tree.
Solution: when selecting a bookmark, an additional display field (= requested feature) at the bottom of the screen should indicate the LOCATION of the bookmark, like for instance "IT > Operating systems > GNU/Linux".
I faced that situation so many times... ("but where is that bookmark?!") :(
Thank you.
