The bookmark library is fine to work with, but it would be nice to be able to delete or modify a single bookmark more quickly, specifically (perhaps): maybe option-clicking the Bookmarks menu could add an options submenu to a highlighted bookmark to go there, delete it, or modify it.

Reproducible: Always

it works like that in other platforms, but most likely we can't have context menus from the native Mac menus.

I remember the option key affecting options in menus in some applications on the Mac -- maybe that was pre-OSX only? Sorry I can't remember an example.

maybe wotnfix, but has been requested in the past already and if technically we can do that, we should. if it's unfeasible that's another story.

Native menus on macOS cannot have context menus. This is not fixable.
