It seems like a good idea to me -- why not store the information for
when the bookmark was first saved?
Of course if this is something that needs to be implemented in
Mozilla then I guess it needs to be there. But actually I think that
the bookmarks code is 100% cocoa and doesn't use the moz bookmarks
stuff.

It's impossible for the bookmark manager to store all the relevant
information needed to produce a citation. It's exactly as you
said--you need it to store "a certain date and time". Which one?
If you visit a site 20 times, which time, exactly, was the time you
studied/quoted/whatever it? The bookmark manager can't know. I
don't see how the last-visited date is irrelevant for citation,
since it seems highly likely that someone would bookmark something
during an initial search for sources, maybe visit them again to
filter that down to a useful set, then go through and read each of
those carefully. In that case, last visit is exactly the required
information.
