We met with Meridel, I agree with her that "Open containing folder" may make sense to the technical audience but will feel clunky / not plain language for general population. Chrome and Edge use "Show In folder" which feels more natural and will align with other browser patterns. We decided to

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1672139]

I concur. Open Containing folder is extremely common usage across all sorts of programs (esp. web browsers, but also most file managers - can confirm with Nautilus as well) and is even used by Firefox's download manager. Keeping this consistent is a must. -- You received this bug notification

I disagree. "Open containing folder" is common terminology and makes it clear that you are opening the folder that contains the bookmark you are examining. This is how Chrome does it. I also use a fabulous file manager called Directory Opus that uses the same terminology. -- You received this

I am so glad to hear this is now being worked. Thank you. As for a name, how about the term Chrome uses when you right click a URL bookmark in your library, which is "Show in Folder." I am not sure how you wish to implement, but if you just open Chrome I think it does it well. I'm not as happy

This sounds A LOT like the "Go To Parent Folder" add-on/extension for older versions of FF. That would be great if you get this to work and implemented into current FF. If you can extend it to also work in the Bookmark sidebar, that would be a boon and truly replicate that aformentioned add-on.

Is there any way to up the priority on this issue? Bookmarks in general work great; much better than Chrome, but darn it, this one item is a terribly annoying feature, i.e. not easily being able to find the folder in which a bookmark is located. Yes, I know there is a work around that sometimes
