The Bookmarks dropdown is now extremely wide making it very hard to scroll down and then move over to the arrow. Why is this so wide? How can I make it more narrow again?

In FF4, the Bookmarks dropdown menu is VERY wide. So now it is hard to scroll down to the desired bookmark and then move to the arrow. Why is this so wide? I want it back to how it was. How can I control this?

I am wondering why it is taking FireFox so long to fix this problem with a fundamental function of the browser.

The longest bookmark name determines the width of the display, only on Mac OSX - it's a Bug in 4.0, the cause of which wasn't fixed until after 5.0 was ready for release. The fix was put in Firefox 6.0alpha, before the need for a 5.0.1 release was found to be needed for Mac OSX 10.5 & 10.6 and for the new 10.7 due to changes that Apple did unexpectedly at the last minute. Firefox 6.0 should be released on the 16th, IIRC.
