In the Firefox bookmarks sidebar, search does not return folder names. How can this be done?

When I do a Search in the Firefox Bookmarks sidebar, no folder names are returned. For example, I have a folder called "Roney". In that folder, there are bookmarks but none of them have "Roney" in the name. When I search for "Roney", nothing is returned, even though I have a folder with that name. How I can I get Firefox (v3.6.2) to return folder names when doing searches? (I have many folders that I would like to "find".)
