Where is an existing bookmark within my bookmarks folders hierarchy?

I have an extensive set of bookmarks, arranged in a nested hierarchy of folders. Sometimes the bookmark I want isn't where I expect it to be. I can find it easily by using the Search facility in Organize Bookmarks, and I can then move it to where I think it should be held, but I can't find out where it has been hiding! Did I put it somewhere equally sensible? Has it been stored or moved inadvertently to the wrong place? It would be useful if, when a bookmark is highlighted in the right-hand pane of the Organize window, its current location could be shown in the left-hand pane by highlighting and expanding its containing folders hierarchy. Alternatively, perhaps the full path to the bookmark could be given in a column in the right-hand pane that could be made visible or not by the user by right-clicking the column headers in the usual way.

The Show Parent Folder add-on may be of use to you. It can be used in conjunction with its companion add-on, Go Parent Folder.
