Is it possible to change the number of recently used bookmark folders?
i really want this function ! Why they wouldn't make this an internal option is stupid.

WebExtensions cannot override a chrome file provided by the application.

Re: change the number of recently used bookmark folders
You could override the editBookmarkOverlay.js file with a chrome registration hack. (for advanced users only)
Chrome Registration
http://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozil ... gistration
You would need to redo the chrome.manifest file and chrome_registration_hack_editBookmarkOverlay_*.js file each time the application updates since the editBookmarkOverlay.js file may change each time the application updates.
* command prompt
* chrome.manifest
* chrome_registration_hack_editBookmarkOverlay_58_0_2.js
(copy source in browser, paste and edit source in notepad)
And remember to save the files in ANSI or UTF-8 without a BOM.
Firefox 58.0.2
Windows 7 SP1 32-bit
