272563 - RSS Livemarks should show the difference between visited pages and not

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 260849

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, enhancement)

Description

[Nik Makepeace]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041109 Firefox/1.0 (MOOX M2)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041109 Firefox/1.0 (MOOX M2)

There should be some UI indication that a link in an RSS bookmark has been
visited or not. While these Live Bookmarks share the bookmark GUI paradigm, they
are in fact an aggregate of links rather more than a folder of bookmarks, and
they should show whether a link has been visited before.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on a livemark folder
2. Click on a link in the folder
3. Click on the livemark folder again

Actual Results:  
The contents of the livemark folder look exactly the same

Expected Results:  
Firefox should have altered the presentation of the visited link in some way as
to show that it had been previously visited.

I think that making unvisited links bold and visited links unstyled would be OK.

It would be nice also if the feed items could have their own specific live
bookmark icon, and that it be grayed out for visited links.
