(Sorry if this is a duplicate, but I searched for a while and didn't find anything.)  The most convenient way that I know to reorder bookmarks and place them in folders is to press Command+B to bring up the list of bookmarks in a sidebar, and then drag them around within the sidebar.  However, this has the side effect that every bookmark I drag gets loaded in the active browser window.

It seems to me that the more natural action would be to load bookmarks only when I click on them (without moving/dragging).  I never drag a bookmark to a new location as an indication that I would like to load that page right now, and am surprised/annoyed when that happens and I lose the current page I was browsing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type Command+B
2. Click-and-drag a bookmark into a new location
Actual Results:  
The bookmark moves to the new location, and the associated page loads in the main browser window.

Expected Results:  
The bookmark moves to the new location, and the active browser window is unchanged.
