Letting all know that I am v unhappy not being able to clear out the "recently bookmarked" pane in Quantum and have reverted to previous version for time being
Just letting all know that if this is not fixed.....ie unable to clear out recently bookmarked pane I will not be continuing with Firefox. I should be able to clear this out at any time without actually deleting the bookmarks, should also be able to have optiopn for Firefox to clear it out on closing browser.

Ask a question about how to do that, rather than make a blanket statement about you being unhappy about "recently bookmarked". There is more than one way to change or hide that asinine new feature.
Hi nwcraft2, the Recently Bookmarked list is generated by running a search across your bookmarks, sorted by most recently added first. So there's nothing to clear out because it's regenerated every time you view that part of the menu.
Unless a setting is added to hide it from the menu, you will need to use a workaround. For example, you can blank out that area of the Library menu, Bookmarks submenu, using a custom style rule.
/* Library Button > Bookmarks: Hide "Recently Bookmarked" */
#PanelUI-bookmarks #panelMenu_recentBookmarks,
#PanelUI-bookmarks #panelMenu_bookmarksMenu {
display: none !important;
}
/* Library button: Hide Bookmarks in "Recent Highlights" */
#appMenu-library-recentHighlights [type="highlight-bookmark"] {
display: none !important;
}
The first rule hides the Recently Bookmarked heading and list. The second hides any bookmarks listed under Recent Highlights -- you may not care about those, but I added it just in case. The attached screenshot is from Firefox 59 (test version available as "Nightly") but I think it should also work in Firefox 57.
Custom style rules can be applied to Firefox's user interface using a userChrome.css file. If you haven't created one before, it's a 5-10 minute project to get it all set up. This article should help: https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html
I should mention that any time you or anyone with access to your Firefox wants to see your recently added bookmarks, you can
- Open the Library window ("Show All Bookmarks")
- If the Added column is not showing, right-click a column heading and click Added on the list
- Click the Added column heading to sort (click again to sort in the reverse order)
The section of the Library menu is more easily accessible, but the information is not a secret.

That's a fair enough comment .....sorry....just really annoyed with it just sitting there on top of everything. jscher2000 seems to have a solution. For me I've never had to look at custom style rules and using a userChrome.css file....but I'll give it a go. Thanks.

Thanks for the info, I will give it a go.
