I like to save all bookmarks to the bookmark menu. How do I skip the steps of changing from the "unsorted bookmarks" default save location?

this is just a simple question that I cannot find an answer to. The default location that Firefox saves a new bookmark is the "unsorted bookmarks" folder. I'm tired of changing that everytime to the bookmarks menu, which is where I like to store all of my bookmarks.

If you do not click the star on the location bar but use "Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page" (Cmd+D) then the bookmark is saved in the Bookmarks Menu folder.

You can also create a toolbar button with this command: 

PlacesCommandHook.bookmarkCurrentPage(true, PlacesUtils.bookmarksMenuFolderId);
