Default FireFox Help: Automatic Sorting of Bookmarks?

I've been using FireFox for some time now, and I think that it's superior to IE. The only thing that drive me nuts is that I can't figure out how to auto sort my bookmarks like I can in IE.

Does anyone know if there's a way to do this?

I'm looking at mine now and in the folders that have bookmarks and folders sorted by name, they are sorted a-z regardless of folder or bookmark. I right click on one of the items and select Sort by Name and it sorts it a-z folders first followed by a-z bookmarks, like in windows explorer.

Exactly. If I add a bookmark, I want it to be sorted in my folders automatically.

I don't want to have to take an extra step to sort it.

The beauty of Mozilla is you can email them and they will actually take you into consideration Comments and Suggestions mean something

That's what is not automatic. i.e. I don't want to have to right click. Also, doesn't that only sort a single folder? It doesn't sort sub-folders.
