I select Bookmarks on my menu bar and get a pull-down menu of bookmarks.
 Bookmarks NOT in folders are shown.  Folder names are shown; if I put
my cursor on a folder name, I get a pull-down submenu of the contents of
the folder.

If I put my cursor over a folder name in the pull-down menu or a submenu
and right-click, I get a pull-down context menu that allows me to open
all bookmarks in that folder, all in tabs in the current window (per my
preference settings for tabbed browsing).  If I my cursor over an actual
bookmark in the pull-down menu or a submenu and right-click, I get a
pull-down context menu that allows me to open that bookmark either in a
tab or in a new window.

Therefore, either what you want already exists; or else you have not
described your problem clearly enough.
