There is no backup at all for a bookmark file. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. no way to reproduce, but the conceptual experiment is simple 2. 3. Actual Results: When I rebooted, my bookmarks were gone. Checkdisk found a damaged partially written copy, but there was no other backup. Suggest writing to a temp file, renaming old to a backup, etc. Give me a chance to recover! PS: I had an elaborate stratgegy to back up my bookmarks with other precious data, but that strategy broke when I switched to mozilla. Sigh.
