Expand "Show all the bookmarks folders" (#editBMPanel_folderTree) by default when invoking "Bookmark this page" box?
FF 60.0.1 – MacOS 10.13.4
When creating a new bookmark of the current page by either Cmd+D or clicking the star icon in the far right of the location bar, a box with the title "Page Bookmarked" appears. [Nb. The titles change if you are editing a bookmark that was already saved.]
This box contains:
- A text field to edit the name.
- A (mostly useless) combo-box of hard coded top-level folders, followed by "Choose...", then an abbreviated (and inaccurate) list of recently selected folders.
- A disclosure arrow that expands the box to show a scrolling tree table of all your bookmark folders. (also achieved via the "Choose..." option from the above combo box.
- A text edit field to edit (non-tokenized) tags.
- A disclosure arrow that expands the box to show a (non-editable) multi choice table of existing tags.
- A "Remove Bookmark" button.
- A "Done" button.
The disclosure state (whether it is opened or closed) of the Folder or Tags tables is never saved. i.e. Every time I want to bookmark the current page I must grab the mouse and go click on the Folder disclosure arrow to choose the folder I actually want. Yes, I must actually use the mouse to save a bookmark where I want it _every_ _time_. While the bookmark folder tree table is perfectly navigable via the keyboard, i've been unable to find a way to make it disclose without clicking.
I had a go at tweaking via a userChrome.css but was unsuccessful. I'm able to expand #editBMPanel_folderTree size (an _extremely_ necessary tweak IMHO, why is it so small by default?) but not make it show on launch.
I've replicated this behavior on a completely clean instance of FF 60.0.1 with no extensions or modifications. Perhaps i'm missing something? Is this just a bug? Hard to believe this is intended behavior.
Thank you in advance for any assistance, this is driving me bonkers. =D

Please remove your userChrome folder from it;s location as the coding could be wrong and that is the issue.
Which by the way you have made a lot of description but what is the issue ?
The expanded state of the folder tree does not persist, it must be clicked every time.
As stated in the original post, behavior persists even on a clean instance of FF 60.0.1 i.e. no extensions or userChrome.
The Folder line doesn't have a keyboard shortcut (accelerator key). I need to use the Tab key to select the second arrow at the far right and press the Space or Enter key to open the tree list.
On Mac you may have to check this pref about:config page.
Ah, space key does expand the tree, thank you.
Still looking for a solution to have it expanded when opened tho.
