#2I'm certainly happy about this (at least for now) reversion. It is frustrating when a product you use loses functionality in the name of progress.
For me, the basic functionality was folder selection to save the new bookmark into, which no longer seemed to work in the last release.

It did actually, but it was just not very clear and took a number of clicks to do.

#4For me, problem with old bookmarks manager is that I have to make my own categories to store all items there.
It's much easier to just make bookmark without much thinking, knowing that later I can find it by keywords search. This way I'm not affraid that these bookmarks could grow as hard-to-lookup categories jungle.
Would be cool if they added tags feature, in case I want to group items.

#6Good that Google reverted it back and don't bring it back - keep it optional. I am just moving away from IE11 (as Edge won't come to Win7) and Chrome is a good alternative and the bookmark functionality was fine. If there would be Servo build for Win7, I would use it.

You might want to look into Pocket if you don't know it already (getpocket.com). If it's still not satisfying your needs, you'll probably be interested in the product we launched recently. (cf profile)
