In addition to what is already stated, no right-click menu in the Bookmarks menu
has worked since about version 0.9. Instead a small box displays instead of what
is supposed to be a menu. I really used to use the right-click feature to sort
bookmarks by name and to open a bookmark in a new tab. Now I have to open Manage
Bookmarks to sort and I have to click New Tab and open the bookmark to open a
bookmark in a new tab.

Basically you are forced to run a new instance of Mozilla to see the folder again.

I have added a screen shot.
