298395 - Use same bookmark set as Safari

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Camino Graveyard :: Bookmarks, enhancement)

Description

[Faisal N. Jawdat]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050620 Camino/0.9a1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050620 Camino/0.9a1

I'd like to be able to have Camino use the same bookmark set as Safari.  I
realize I can move things back and forth, but I'd like a single consistent
store.  I also realize it's probably unsafe to access it directly, and probably
requires some cooperation with the Safari team to make it a reality.  Or maybe
there's an API out there that they haven't talked about.  Who knows.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Try to run two browsers.
2.  Wonder where you put that one bookmark.
3.  Wonder if Mr. Roarke and Tattoo can help.

Actual Results:  
Seperate bookmark sets == a big pain.  Merging and export tools == unreliable
and also a big pain.  iSync == effectivel impossible.

Expected Results:  
Single store, or at least preference for it.

we can't do this. we store different info and they don't preserve any attributes
that they don't know about.
