Sort bookmarks in a given order is not preserved. Moved folder of bookmarks in the side window F9 appears after restarting the browser (the directory is not visible), but not immediately.

Can confirm also with version 0.2.9 on Linux.
Not only the bookmarks in the folder are deleted, but also the renamed bookmark folder is not visible anymore in the bookmarks panel.

note: yes, the bookmark panel is visible again after Midori restart, but the bookmarks that were in it, are gone.

Also when you create two folders with same name and move some bookmark into one of them it will be in... both. It's becuase bookmark remember only parent folder's name, it should be changed. I think we need new property - unique ID.
