Currently, we only consider NEW bookmarks for deduping.

Deduping UNKNOWN bookmarks should be safe, too, and avoids uploading dupes if we restore default bookmarks at startup (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/d2b4b40901c15614fad2fa34718eea428774306e/browser/components/migration/MigrationUtils.jsm#376-377, https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/d2b4b40901c15614fad2fa34718eea428774306e/browser/components/nsBrowserGlue.js#1645-1650,1655), from an old backup with different GUIDs, or from an ancient (pre-bug 967204) backup without GUIDs. Items that already exist on the server will match by GUID.

Bug 1443245 - Ensure UNKNOWN and NEW bookmarks are reset to NORMAL after merging.

Looks good, thanks and great catch! I'd like to have one more look with the change to the trigger.

::: toolkit/components/places/SyncedBookmarksMirror.jsm:1058

I think we'll want to also update the `syncStatus` in https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/33cc9e0331da8d9ff3750f1e68d72d61201176cb/toolkit/components/places/SyncedBookmarksMirror.jsm#2129-2135, so, even if we keep the local value state, we'll still mark it as `NORMAL` if we deduped, instead of waiting until the engine calls `pushChanges`. (This is wrong for `NEW` today, too. Also, the comment above that statement is wrong, s/needsMerge/hasRemoteValue).

::: toolkit/components/places/tests/sync/test_bookmark_deduping.js:79

Keeping with the above, would you mind checking, via `PlacesSyncUtils.bookmarks.fetchBookmarkSyncFields`, that we changed the status of `NEW` and `UNKNOWN` items to `NORMAL` after deduping?
