I am moving to Firefox from Safari. I would like to make a Bookmark folder that is only available to me in the Library view. In other words: How to make a bookmark folder that is not in Bookmarks Menu or the Bookmarks Toolbar. I don't want this folder to be viewed in the regular Bookmarks Menu or the Toolbar. Thanks Firefox 3.6.12 Mac OS 10.5.8

When you create a new "folder" for bookmarks, it has to go in one of those 3 primary folders - Bookmarks Toolbar, Bookmarks Menu, or Unsorted Bookmarks - you can't add one anywhere else. The Unsorted Bookmarks folder doesn't appear in the Bookmarks menu bar dropdown, but it does in the Library window and the Bookmarks Sidebar view.
