I just tried to look into that. The bookmark is saved correctly, but
it looks like the search function provided by the new Places API
doesn't look at the bookmarks title, but only at what the content of
the <title>-tag was last time you visited the page. This is probably
because they now save history and bookmarks in the same database (you
have to set a flag if you only want to search for bookmarks).

It is somewhat mysterious to me why it isn't a problem in Firefox 3,
which searches for bookmarks just fine.

Btw. if you want to delete, change or in another way manage your
bookmarks, then you can copy the places.sqlite file from your conkeror
profile directory into your Firefox profile directory and use Firefox
to do the editing. Conkeror doesn't have any bookmark-manager as far
as I know.
