DnD folders the bookmarks section doesn't work for me either in 12.04. I

Not sure if this is the recommended place to do so, but I would like to
add that that bookmarking behaviour was not at all obvioius to me
either. I kept wondering why my Home dir kept being added to the
bookmarks, instead of the selected folder IN my home dir that I tried
adding to bookmarks...

Title:
  add bookmark is broken in oneiric's nautilus

Status in Nautilus:
  Confirmed
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I can no longer add a bookmark to nautilus in the current Oneiric.

  If you try and drag a folder to the very bottom of the bookmarks
  section immediately after opening a nautilus window, it doesn't get
  added to the bookmarks. This also prevents newly-created users from
  ever adding a bookmark. If you drag a folder to the middle of the
  bookmarks section, it gets added, and at this point you can drag
  folders to the very bottom of the bookmark section (at least until you
  close nautilus and reopen it).

  Choosing 'Add Bookmark' from the often menu does nothing.
