When you open the bookmarks sidebar, initially there is no element with focus.
If you click on any "+" beside a folder (except the first one) on the sidebar,
the very first element will get focus. 
This can be very annoying if you have a large list of bookamrks folders. If you
scroll your list on sidebar (using the mouse scrollrad) to point to a folder on
the bottom and click on "+" the list will jump to the very first element on the
list.
A similar problem occours also with the History sidebar.
The issue started with build 20050726. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new profile. 
2.Open the bookmarks sidebar.
3.Click on the "+" signal beside the third folder on it ("Firefox and Mozilla
Links").

Actual Results:  
Notice that the first folder ("Bookmarks Toolbar Folder") get focus. 

Expected Results:  
The old behaviour was if you click on the "+" beside a folder, the focus stills
on the last selected element. If no element was selected (as you open the
sidebar at the first time), it should still with no element selected.
I think this needs to go under XP Toolkit/Widgets: Tree. Someone correct me if
I'm wrong.
