The Bookmark bubble doesn't suit me, so I've made some redesign
suggestions:

My preference is 2A, since it avoids the unbalanced whitespace we have
in the current Bookmarks bubble. Further 2A takes less vertical space,
and mousing down to the Close-button is easier. Don't think so? Go
ahead and ask me for a javascript prototype to get some statistics of
mouse movement timing in 2A vs Original :-)

2A also removes the part "Added!" and changes "Folder:" to "in", as
well as demotes the Edit... button to a smaller link. I never use
Edit... and maybe when the Bookmark Manager evolves that Edit... could
lead to there with the current bookmark in view. Kind of like the
Download bar's excellent Show in folder.

If 2A is too radical, then maybe 1A isn't too much so? 1A leaves more
space for lengthy translations, while 2A could need to be more
flexible, maybe shrinking the textfield for name to manage with
lengthy translations.

Finally two quick suggestions.
1. Make the bubble appear further to the left, such that the mouse
pointer will be closer to Close.
2. The name is always selected when opening the bookmark bubble and
with long names you then only see the end of the name. Sometimes that
can be very confusing, and I suggest making the selection such that
the beginning of the textfield is in view instead of the end of it.
