In the menu that appears when right-clicking on a bookmark in the bookmark toolbar, hitting the "t" on the keyboard deletes the bookmark without warning.  This is not documented in the menu and is quite undesirable: I expect "t" to open the bookmark in a new tab.  

The menu indicates that "d" should delete the bookmark so either "t" should do nothing, or preferably open the bookmark in a new tab.

I have lost several bookmarks via this bug.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. right-click on a bookmark in the bookmark toolbar
2. type t
3.

Actual Results:  
bookmark deletes

Expected Results:  
open bookmark in new tab
"t" is Cut. 
So this is expected behavior.
