The font size on the bookmarks sidebar is too small for comfortable reading. I used to be able to alter the size. I lost that ability 2 or 3 FireFox updates ago. Does anyone know how to accomplish this ?

I had exactly the same problem! I just bought myself a Macbook Pro 17" and the display's resolution is so high that everything on the screen is minute (causing me headache really...).

I found this great add-on for changing fonts used by FF overall (i.e. not just for the bookmarks): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/

It worked well for me. Hope it helps!
