Comment #6 on issue 9501 by rcdailey: Feature Request: Recursive bookmark  
sorting
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9501

There is currently no "undo" feature for the existing non-recursive sort,  
right? So
that's the same kind of "painful", but at a lesser scale. Undo sounds like  
a great
idea, I'd have no objections to this being done as well if you feel up to  
the work.

Thanks for reopening the issue and being so agreeable on this topic. It's  
nice to
know there's already a preference for this behavior!

This is a bit of a stretch, but perhaps you can have a "change log" of  
bookmark
modifications. For example, just like version control, you can view a sort  
of
"modification log" for bookmark changes. This not only gives you the  
ability to undo
a recursive sort, but also allows you to undo any change you've made  
regardless of
what it is. Call it a persistent undo log.

I can agree that in most typical cases, users will not need this much  
complexity. I
simply suggest it because I've seen this implemented before and it worked  
quite well.
Foxmarks (Now known as Xmarks) uses a web-based bookmark backup solution.  
Their web-
based bookmark viewer has a log of all modifications made to your bookmarks  
and also
allows you to diff them. It's a bit complex for normal users, but for power  
users
it's quite a useful feature.

I don't expect this to be implemented in Chrome, but it's a useful idea  
that I
thought I'd bring up since you mentioned Undo.
