(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Let's say you've created a recursive folder, such as by having the Personal
Toolbar Folder inside of the Personal Toolbar folder. When you try to expand
this folder with the bookmarks tab in the sidebar, the browser crashes. I would
personally suggest some kind of patch that prevents a user from creating such
instances.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Drag "Personal Toolbar Folder" from the bookmarks tab of the sidebar to the
Personal Toolbar at the top.
2. Click on the plus sign in front of "Personal Toolbar Folder" in the sidebar tab.

That's not exactly the right dupe, pasting a folder into itself is now prevented
for the trees, but there is still no check for the personal toolbar.
