Version 4 seems to no longer have a "bookmark all tabs" feature, how can this be restored?

One of the best features in Firefox was the ability to bookmark all open tabs with one mouse click, into one folder. That feature appears to have been removed. Does anyone know of a way to restore this function, even if it's just with an add-on?

To the Mozilla team: Can you restore this function? (Why was it even removed?)

Right-click on a Tab to see the Bookmark All Tabs menu item. Or use {Ctrl + Shft + D} to bookmark all open Tabs.

You only see that "Bookmark All Tabs " item in the Bookmarks menu if you use the keyboard (Alt + B)

  • Bug 626825 - Hide redundant menu commands unless the user invokes the menu using the keyboard (make use of the openedWithKey attribute)

Hah... thanks for nothing firefox 4. While troubleshooting a different problem I stumble on this other deficiency. Fifteen minutes into using firefox 4 and reason to not use it +2.

Get better (any?) usability experts and stop throwing legacy workflow under the bus unless you have convincing reasons. This is just an unecessary and confusing change over previous behaviour, for what, saving one line of screen space on the menu?

- still frustrated and dissapointed
