Are you asking for a "favourites" folder like IE? as in, individual web shortcut
files instead of bookmarks.html?

Comment 2

[David Tenser [:djst]]

Mozilla uses a bookmarks.html file, not a whole bunch of files and folders on
your hard drive. If you want to browse your bookmarks, just open the html file
in your browser.

-> WONTFIX.

Yes. I hope Firebird can have folder like the "My Favorite" of IE.
Because when I burn these to backup it is conventient to have web shortcut
files.

--> WONTFIX

This isn't how Firebird or Mozilla has ever or will ever do this.  If you really
want something you can read off a disk, open bookmarks.html in a browser. 
Please do not reopen this bug again just because you disagree with the conclusion.

VERIFYING obvious WONTFIX bugs.  Filter on firebirdWontFix to filter these bugs.
 I skipped a few that I'm unsure about from their summary and will manually go
through them.

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs, filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
