why?  This dialog has a single use, to select a bookmark or folder as the home
page.  Why would it have a context menu?  Enabling the context menu would open
up a huge can of worms that I don't want to open.

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

It seems I don't express myself very clearly.
In bug 494350,I don't ask for anything about the dialog box.I am talking about the tab or page.In my opinion the easiest way to add a page as "home page" is right mouse click on the page or tab,and then select from the menu "set as my only home page" or "add to my home pages".
Actually there is another exciting way,why can't the users set their "home page" using the star button in the urlbar.In this way the users can easily set their home page and bookmarks at the same time.
