233994 - "create in" dropdown in the add bookmark dialogue seems to change randomly and has no default

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 232467

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Brian Koppe]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

When adding a bookmark in Firefox, the "create in" dropdown seems to not have a
default setting.  It sometimes isn't even what has been used previously and
seems to change randomly (I have not noticed any pattern).

I recommend that the "create in" dropdown have a default to create bookmarks in
the standard "bookmarks" folder and go to that every time a bookmark is added.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Simply add bookmarks over time and across a few browsing sessions.  It's quite
easy to see.
Actual Results:  
The create in dialogue continues to change the selection it starts out with,
despite having given no reason to.

Expected Results:  
automatically defaulted to "Bookmarks" for each add bookmark action.
