Description

[Orris E. Burns III]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212

The bookmark tabs currently use the title of the web page to identify the title;
in many cases this title is way too long.

Suggest the the user be able to rename the tabs in the same way that
conventional bookmarks may be renamed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create bookmark tab (<CTL-t>)
2.Specify the new URL
3.

Actual Results:  
The tab was created with a label that corresponds to the title of the web page.

Expected Results:  
In the process of creating the tab Mozilla should have asked for a name for the
tab, or at least provided a mechanism for changing the label.
