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

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?

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.

• 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.
