Gecko/20010831
BuildID:    2001083103

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Fill a bookmarks menu with enough bookmarks that it scrolls.
2. Scroll the bookmarks menu down to the bottom.
3. Remove half of the bookmarks so it doesn't need to scroll anymore.
4. Open the bookmarks menu.

Actual Results: The menu is still scrolled to the bottom with some whitespace
under the last entry.

Moving the mouse over the top bookmark will sometimes scroll it back up and fix
it (only with a folder, for me).

I could reproduce this in both the Bookmarks menu and the Personal Toolbar, but
it's easier with the Personal Toolbar since you don't have to add as many bookmarks.
This could be solved if we didn't maintain the scroll position, which I find
pretty annoying and confusing.

Bug 119738 - bookmark menu saved scroll position not reset for deleted bookmarks
Behaviour exists in 2002060107.

Please add code which (on open of bookmarks) does a quick sanity check/reset of
the offset.  It shouldn't be more than 5-10 lines of code for someone who knows
that area of code :)
*** Bug 150190 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Another side effect of this bug:

Same white spaces under last entries also appear if menu gets longer because of
window dragging.

Steps:
1. Fill a bookmarks menu with enough bookmarks that it scrolls.
2. Move browser window to bottom of screen
3. Scroll the bookmarks menu down to the bottom.
4. Move browser window to top of screen
5. Open the bookmarks menu.

Another problem: If the menu fits on screen afterwards, the scroll arrows
disappear, and you cannot scroll-repair the menu. (There's an invisible up arrow
however)

I also have the same problem if I put enough bookmarks in the "personal toolbar"
and later delete some of them.
