Summary description BSP2 add-on allows you to quickly find where a bookmark or folder is located in the bookmark tree. It shows under which folder the selected result is, focusing on it and automatically expanding folders along the path = parent folder, grand-parent .. etc ... => the full chain from top. When closing search, the initial expansion state of open/closed folders is restored

If you have plenty of bookmarks organized in folders (some users have up to 80000 bookmarks and 15000 folders), this add-on should fit your need.

Your bookmarks are safe ! No changes are made to them by default.

Thank you so much for making this, there's surprisingly little support for regex searching your bookmarks for some reason, which I would've thought a lot of people need/want to do. Handy little tool :)
