Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

It is not possible to tag multiple webpages at the same time.

Steps to repeat:
1. Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks...
2. In the left panel, double-click your "Bookmarks Menu" folder or any other folder
3. In the right panel, select multiple bookmarks (click first, shift-click last)

Expected Result:
The "Name" and "Location" fields of the bottom-right panel become disabled, but the "Tags" field is still usable

Actual Result:
The entire bottom-right panel (Name, Location, and Tags) disappears, making it impossible to apply a tag to all of the selected bookmarks.

A little nitpicky, I know. But I, like most users of pre-3.0 versions, have organized my bookmarks in a folder structure. Now that Firefox has such a great tagging system, I would love to tag all of my bookmarks and (at least partially) do away with my folder structure. Because only one webpage can be tagged at a time, it would be far too time-consuming to do so.
