[Bug 230367] [NEW] Bookmark ordering is inconsistent between the organizer and the toolbar

[matt at mattmckeon.com]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Ubuntu Hardy LTS 
3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3

I keep folders of bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar, so that I can
click on a given folder and select the bookmark I want from a dropdown
menu.

The bookmarks in a particular folder are organized into sections, with a
separator between sections.

I reorder the bookmarks in a folder the Bookmark Organizer, creating
separators &etc.

The bookmarks are properly reordered in the dropdown menu for the active
window.

However, if I open a new window, the bookmarks in the new window's
dropdown are scrambled. If I select a different folder in the organizer,
then select the same folder again, the bookmarks are scrambled in the
same order as the dropdown.

Dragging and reordering bookmarks within the dropdown only works
sporadically, and tends to have different results from what I expect.
