(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Dragging the URL bar icon up to the Bookmarks menu, trying to select the correct sub-folder and place within that sub-folder to drop the new bookmark: This is FAR more sensitive than in FF2. I have yet to get a bookmark placed correctly in my several folder deep Bookmarks structure. The mouse goes astray always and the bookmarks menu system closes up. Most annoying!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Drag the icon in the URL bar (where the URL gets typed in)
2. Try to drag it to the correct sub-folder
3.
Actual Results:  
While doing so in FF3, the bookmarks menu is TTTOOOOOOOO sensitive to the mouse "stay'n on the straight and narrow" thus gets offended and closes the entire menu.

Expected Results:  
Bookmarks should stay open while allowing the new bookmark to be properly placed.

Duplicate of Bug 419911? If not, can you explain more clearly what you mean?

I suspect this is a dupe of 419911. I did not learn of 419911 until after I opened this one. I already added a "possible dupe" comment to 419911.
