[Bug 917753] [NEW] FireFox does not support keyboard bookmark seletion.

[David G. Pickett]

Public bug reported:

Unlike in other browsers and O/S, the bookmark menu does not respond to
the keyboard, making navigation of long, sorted bookmarks lists very
manual for high letters.  Usually, you can type the first letter one or
more times and jump/step down the list of bookmarks starting with that
letter.
