User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

Over time one can end up with a great many bookmarks that are either unwanted or
duplicates. One way in which managing this situation could be greatly improved
is by using the search function under Manage Bookmarks to display bookmarks with
a string where one could then effect changes to the resulting bookmarks (delete,
rename, etc).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Menu item: Manage bookmarks
2. Type text into search field
3. select resulting duplicate bookmark
4. delete

Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
duplicate bookmark should be deleted

Implementing of this feature could greatly enhance the power and usefulness of
the manage bookmarks aspect of the browser.

Thanks for everything!
