(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1

A bookmark folder refused to expand (in the standard drop down menu) after a
page within it was opened via a right click. I was able to produce this bug on
my computer and on my girlfriend's computer using the "Open", "Open in new
window" and "Open in new tab" options. In the case of "open in new window", the
new browser window was able to expand the bookmark folder in question. However,
the calling window was unable to expand that folder. A similar effect can be
seen if there are two windows open and only one of them has an item right
clicked to open.

This problem does not occur if an item is opened in the bookmark root folder via
a right click.

Another interesting item is that the folder icon shows that the folder is still
"open".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a set of bookmarks with folders
2. Right click on an item within a folder using the standard drop down menu
3. select any option (I've tested almost all of them)
4. After firebird finishes performing the action, open the bookmarks menu again
Actual Results:  
The folder icon will be the open folder icon and the folder will not expand

Expected Results:  
The folder icon should be the closed icon, as the folder is closed and when the
mouse hovers over the folder name, the folder should expand.
