I have a lot of bookmark folders, some contain more than one URL and some only contain one URL. The ones with one URL will not open when you do a middle mouse click. When you do a right click the open all in Tabs is grayed out so you can not select it. All of the bookmark folders with more than one URL work the way they are suppose to work. This all started with version 32 install.

Okay, it works the same way for me. I'm not sure whether "open all" will come back in that case, where there's only one bookmark. Does it slow down your workflow a lot to middle-click on the bookmark itself instead of on the folder?

Requests for feature changes get a bit lost here in the support forum. You can submit suggestions in one or more of the following ways:

(1) Feedback site: https://input.mozilla.org/feedback

(2) Developer mailing lists (sometimes hard to figure out which one is best): https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo

(3) Bug tracking system (yours would be a request for enhancement): https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/QA/Bug_writing_guidelines

With all the bookmark-related extensions out there, it's possible someone has posted one that adds this feature back, but I haven't searched.

Yes it does slow me down. I looked for something to correct it. For now I am getting around it by putting a second URL in the folder. After the folder is opened I then close the second URL. I usually open anywhere from 1 to 7 folders at a time. So this does slow me down.
