Option to set root folder? [request]

[spiralsam]

It looks like the main bookmark root folder from which the popup "Use existing folder" list is taken is from Firefox's default Bookmarks Toolbar. Perhaps have an option to change this?

@spiralsam That's correct: the code currently looks at the default Bookmarks Toolbar, for simplicity. What would you like the user be able to select instead?

It would be great to be able to set the root folder as Bookmarks Menu instead of Bookmarks Toolbar since the Menu is where I store the majority of my bookmarks and I only use the Toolbar for very frequently accessed bookmarks.

Thanks for the additional vote on this. I'll look into this.

I would love to see this as well!

Thanks for the additional vote. I admit not having as much time as I used to, but I'll do my best.

I guess most people would select the 'Bookmarks Menu' as base folder ... I currently use the recently introduced 'Other Bookmarks' folder (browser.toolbars.bookmarks.showOtherBookmarks) ... but maybe it is best to let the user select an arbitrary folder 😉
