[feature] Show folder structure and allow deleting whole folders to make things easier with many bookmars #9

Hi!

I have thousands of bookmarks. It's a lot harder to make judgmends without seeing where they are

Besides, it might be that I'll end up with empty orphaned bookmarks since this addon doesn't have the option to delete empty folders. Also, in some cases it might be that a whole folder is pointless because of all age, even if not all links are dead, so allowing me to delete it would be even more helpful. (I think whis would require, showing alive bookmarks as well.)

PS: why not show the number of "expired bookmarks"? I happened on a page with a 403 error code that load normally within the browser.

The Bookmarks Organizer add-on will show a folder structure. This is not necessarily something I plan to implement.

I can reproduce the problem with the nature.com page, but I think it might be something I can't trivally fix.

A guide I found doesn't suggest that I can delete bookmarks in bulk though with that: http://www.ilovefreesoftware.com/10/featured/how-to-delete-dead-bookmarks-in-firefox.html
