New issue 6630 by rablaridash: Feature request: Add new bookmark instead of  
edit existing
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=6630

Chrome Version       : 1.0.154.36

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Visit a page that is already bookmarked.
2. Click the star button next to the address bar.
3. Select a folder
4. Click "Close"

What is the expected result?
A new bookmark is added to the selected location.

What happens instead?
The existing bookmark is moved to the new location.

Please provide any additional information below.
Sometimes I want to have a bookmark in multiple folders. It is certainly
possible to do that in Chrome, but is not convenient. Adding a bookmark
manually (right-click a bookmark, add page..., type in all the information)
, and performing a copy and paste from with the bookmark manager both seem
convoluted when you're already staring at the desired page.

If multiple copies of a bookmark exist, then clicking the star button will
edit the most recently added one, leaving all older copies untouched. Since
it is not always clear to the user which is the most recent copy, this can
lead to bookmarks moving mysteriously.

Ideally, the star button would list the existing bookmarks for that page,
and allow you to choose between them to edit one, or choose "Add new". The
current behavior makes it easy to lose track of copies, and subsequently
edit or delete the wrong one.
