1675289 - Assign and display text on separators in bookmarks folders

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, enhancement)

Description

[Geri]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:82.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/82.0

Steps to reproduce:

Select 'New Separator' in bookmarks folder.

Actual results:

A separator line is inserted.

Expected results:

I think it'd be convenient if the separator lines in bookmarks folders could be assigned a text (by selecting 'Properties' on a separator line) so that the folder looks like, for instance:

─────────────────────────────
... some ...
... unseparated ...
... bookmarks ...
─── Important bookmarks ───────────
Internet for people, not profit — Mozilla (UK)
... many ...
... more ...
... important ...
... bookmarks ...
─── Less important bookmarks ────────
Google Chrome
... less ...
... many ...
... more ...
─────────────────────────────

Unfortunately at this time we don't plan to add this feature because we don't have the resources for it, and it's likely to create problems to Sync. We'll re-evaluate in the future if those problems will be gone.

Please do not request needinfo from people without explanation.

Nothing significant has changed at the moment and is not likely to for the foreseeable future, so we will not re-evaluate at this time.
