Bookmarks as folders and files in a new tab

[Rafaell]

Hi,
It would be really helpful to have an option to view and manage current bookmarks in a visual file-and-folder style layout on the New Tab page. This could greatly improve usability, especially for users with a large number of bookmarks.

Currently, the bookmarks bar is quite limited — it's a thin strip, and navigating folders with many bookmarks requires excessive scrolling, which makes the experience cumbersome.

Here's what I propose:

• Display bookmarks and folders visually on the New Tab page, similar to how files and folders are shown in Windows Explorer or a file manager

• Support drag-and-drop to move bookmarks between folders, or out of folders

• Add right-click or hover options to:

  • Edit a bookmark (rename or change URL)

  • Delete a bookmark

  • Move it up one level or into a different folder

  • Drag and drop tabs to add a new bookmark (current tab link)
    
  • Add new folder

This would make bookmark management much more intuitive and powerful.

Thanks for considering!

EXCELLENT IDEA!!    Same concept as File Manager which most of us are very familiar with.  Would make accesssing bookmarks so much easier.
