297710 - Expand / collapse bookmark folder menu items don't work in bookmarks toolbar or main menu

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 243235

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Jorge Villalobos [:jorgev] (he/him)]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

The context menu for bookmark folders is the same for the Bookmarks sidebar,
Bookmarks toolbar and Bookmarks menu. The first item in the context menu is
Expand/Collapse, which does exactly that, but only on the Bookmarks sidebar.
If you right-click on a closed bookmark folder on the Bookmarks toolbar or the
Bookmarks menu, the Expand item does nothing. Actually it closes the whole menu.
If you right-click on an open bookmark folder on the Bookmarks toolbar or the
Bookmarks menu, the Expand item appears instead of the Collapse one, which
should be the appropriate one to appear.
I think this context menu item should not appear when viewing bookmarks through
the Bookmarks menu or the Bookmarks toolbar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Right-click on a bookmark folder on the Bookmarks menu or the Bookmarks toolbar.
2.Click on "Expand".

Actual Results:  
All menus are closed as if you were clicking elsewhere on the browser.

Expected Results:  
Folder should be expanded. An expanded folder should be collapsed.
OR
Expand item shouldn't even appear.

Yes, it makes no sense to have expand there
