Hello there,

First of all let me introduce myself: I'm the main developer for Fleet
Commander, a tool for deploying desktop profiles in large network
environments.

Recently we started to work on supporting browsers. More specificly Firefox
and Chromium/Chrome. We wanted to ask for advice and also give our thoughts
for what it may be worth.

We are very excited about the enterprise policies support you are
developing, and our idea is to use that feature for deploying configuration
and bookmarks policies with our desktop profiles, but until this feature
gets finished, we will do our best to support the settings deployment using
pref files and we are working on getting bookmarks from an existing profile
to later deploy them with a desktop profile.

The things we wanted to ask are mainly about how deployed bookmarks will be
shown and the format for deploying the bookmarks itself.

Given the example here:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/EnterprisePolicies#Example_JSON_file

* Will you support deploying bookmarks in different locations (the
bookmarks bar and in the main bookmarks for example)?

* In chromium/chrome, they just show a "Managed Bookmarks" dropdown at the
bookmarks bar and show the policy set bookmarks there. This way of
deploying the bookmarks is somekind annoying because if I, as a sysadmin,
want to put them directly in the bar as any other bookmark for ease of use
for the users in my network, there is no way to do that. Do you plan to
show the bookmarks just like any other bookmark in the bookmarks bar or
main bookmarks?

* The format you gave as an example does not have any subfolder with more
bookmarks inside it, or multiple subfolder levels. Will that be supported?

Cheers
