Add 'Folder Search' to 'Edit Bookmark' Pop-Up

[ken_drew]

What's the point of categorizing #bookmarks into folders if it's so slow, cumbersome, and angering to scroll though many #folders when trying to find one to add a bookmark to?

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

Thank you, Jon. 

I think Firefox could DOMINATE the business world as the #1 browser if they added features from Todist and Evernote.

Organization and quick information referencing is crucial in the information age.

That sounds like a good idea! +1 for that.

> added features from Todist and Evernote

• https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/todoist/
• https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/evernote-web-clipper/

IMO, those external services are where they belong, in the addon space, where every user can decide if he/she needs or wants them.

It could be a "fast search" line, like in the Ctrl+f feature - visible as a line under (or above) the folder tree, just after expanding the "Location" box.

So it could use the existing fast search engine - it would be easier to implement.

Why this hasn't been done yet is confounding! This is such a basic, necessary function, it's as if the designers don't actually do any bookmarking themselves.

I have been frustrated with the Add Bookmark feature since day 1.

Not being able to search for the right bookmark folder we would like to put our bookmark in is simply insane.

FF team, please take this one into consideration as many of us are desperate for this feature to arrive!

Cheers
