I set the preference variable browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to True.
 This automatically exports my bookmarks from places.sqlite to the file
bookmarks.html (both in my profile directory).  I then use
bookmarks.html as my home page.  A survey done several years ago
indicated that many Firefox and SeaMonkey users do the same.

I never see the bookmarks toolbar.  I went to the SeaMonkey menu bar,
selected [View > Show/Hide > Bookmarks Toolbar] to remove the checkmark,
which then hides the toolbar.

If I actually want to maintain my bookmarks, I go to the menu bar and
select [Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks].  No I don't.  I have the PrefBar
extension installed along with the Bookmarks Manager button (at
<http://prefbar.tuxfamily.org/buttons.html#mgbookmarks>).  I click on
the button to get the Bookmarks Manager.
