Hit any top-level page on MSNBC (home page, Tech/Sci, Business, etc.). Firefox
will discover one or more feeds. No matter which feed you choose to bookmark,
Firefox will only bookmark the first feed listed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hit MSNBC.com
2. Try to bookmark both feeds that are discovered.
3.

Actual Results:  
Only the first feed is bookmarked.

Expected Results:  
Both feeds should be bookmarked.
True in a a more recent build to: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1;
en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050831 Firefox/1.0+.  Whichever one you pick from the
"Add ..." popyp, only the first appears in the Bookmark dialog.
WFM in Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050831
Firefox/1.6a1 ID:2005083115, though not as nice as it will be eventually: they
are both added, as separate feeds, but with the same default name for the feed,
the name of the page (because we can't use the title from the feed itself until
Feedview comes back, and lets us parse the feed before we add it), and to make
it as confusing as possible, the two different feeds (Top stories and Most
viewed) for the main page generally have mostly the same items in them. But the
only fixable bug is the default title for the feed that we offer in the Add Live
Bookmark dialog, and that's known and covered by adding Feedview back in for the
next release.
