I want to be able to drag the URL of the page i am on directly to a folder in my bookmarks, or else right-click on a pre-existing folder in my list, and get it to add my current page to that folder. Is there any way to do this, or something similarly convenient?

(Right now i only can find out how to do the cumbersome process of doing: bookmarks/bookmark this page/ and then selecting "show all the bookmarks folders" and doing it from there. Quite a round-about way!)
