Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 228582

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Add Bookmark dialog should remember the setting for showing ALL the folders.

So if I want to see all the bookmark folders when adding a bookmark I can.
It is annoying to have to click on the SHOW/HIDE button everytime I want to add
a bookmark.

Currentlly existing button on Add Bookmark dialog that drops the complete
bookmark list is not a good solution because:

1. It is a departure from current practices the users are used to in other browsers.
2. It clutters the Add bookmark dialog
3. It visually mixes with the drop down list next to it

Reproducible: Always
