The exported bookmarks.html starts like this:

<html><head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><title>Bookmarks</title></head><body><h1 icon_uri="chrome://browser/skin/places/bookmarksMenu.png">Bookmarks Menu</h1>

<dl><p>
    </p><dt></dt><h3 places_root="true"></h3>
    <dl><p>
        </p><dt><a href="place:&amp;beginTimeRef=1&amp;endTimeRef=2&amp;sort=4&amp;type=1">History</a>
        </dt><dt><a href="place:&amp;annotation=livemark%2FfeedURI">Subscriptions</a>
Er, View Selection Source messed this up.

<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<TITLE>Bookmarks</TITLE>
<H1 ICON_URI="chrome://browser/skin/places/bookmarksMenu.png">Bookmarks Menu</H1>

<DL><p>
    <DT><H3 PLACES_ROOT="true"></H3>
    <DL><p>
        <DT><A HREF="place:&beginTimeRef=1&endTimeRef=2&sort=4&type=1">History</A>
        <DT><A HREF="place:&annotation=livemark%2FfeedURI">Subscriptions</A>
This is basically the design. This item is the "places root" that appears on the left side of the places pane. We should probably give it a name in the default_places.html, even though you never see it in the UI.

Attached patch PatchSplinter Review
This causes the title of the places root to be imported for a new or migrated profile. You won't see any change if you use an old profile for export.

default_places.html should be going away on the trunk.

once bug 349253 lands, we can add a title via the default properties.

default_places.html no longer exists, and we don't export the places root in bookmarks.html, so marking invalid.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
