Many times I would like to locate where such a bookmark is placed so that I can move it somewhere else in the tree. I can determine that such a bookmark exists via searching, but I often cannot find it in the tree in the outline pane in order to relocate it. If the functionality already exists I could not locate it and would appreciate a response that states how this can be accomplished. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the bookmarks manager Library dialog via the Organize Bookmarks... menu item 2. Search for any term 3. Click once on a found bookmark in the search window Actual Results: Bookmark not highlighted in lefthand outline pane. Expected Results: Expect lefthand outline pane to highlight bookmark.
