Issues on Firefox 113 when selecting a directory during manual save with CTRL+D

[spacesynth]

This is a Bug Report

Description

Manually selecting a directory fails storing the bookmark in the desired location.

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. CTRL+D
2. select another directory like "food links"
3. the bookmark is saved to the main directory not the "food links" directory
4. retrying with CTRL+D shows the "food links" directory (in the popout), but it will always be in the main directory (actual location)

Expected behavior

Save to the selected directory if I override the default one in the CTRL+D popout menu. This is clearly an issue caused by Mozilla updating Firefox, as the addon worked perfectly before.

Specifications

• Version of the add-on: latest from 2021 (is the project dead?)
• Firefox edition: Firefox 113 (stable)
• Firefox version: DevEd 114
• Firefox version: Nightly 115
• Firefox language: English
• Platform/OS: Windows
• Platform/OS version: 19045.2965 windows 10 22h2 pro

Screenshots

Should be easy enough to reproduce, but if really required I can record the issue.

Additional context

If you need logs I can provide them.

I can reproduce the problem on v113.0/Win7.

I confirm. There was such an inconvenience in Firefox 113.

This is still happening, but has changed slightly. It will still force-save to the default directory initially, but now when you Ctrl-D to review the bookmark, it shows the bookmark's actual location. Updating to the desired directory does move the bookmark.

Dainslaif's comment happens on Linux on Firefox v117.0a1. This has probably been messing up my bookmark folders for a while now 😢

user_pref("browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation", "menu________");

I'm abandoning this issue and will enforce the default bookmark folder via user.js permanently which enforces prefs.js on launch.
