2000110304 trunk win32 Open the properties window for a bookmark. Now open it once more for the same bookmark (without closing the bookmark) Actual result : another windows is opened. Expected result : the window previously openend should come up. You can repeat this process infinitely (each times, a new window is opended)
Confirmed on Linux with build of 11/03. OS->All.

I think the bookmark properties window should be modal. Making it non-modal creates a lot of problems like this one, and doesn't really add anything.
Netscape Nav triage team: this is not a Netscape beta stopper.

Easy. Just need to give the window a type and make sure windows are opened using the helper methods that open a new window by type only if one exists.
Ideally, we'd want to open the bm-props.xul file into a named window, however there's a bug where if you load a document into a named window which is already open and has that document loaded already, the arguments array on the window object is undefined.
see also bug 82983. One reason to have multiple bookmarks open is to copy comments, another would be to synchronize schedules.

Why not name the window after the bookmark internal URL, then the properties action could activate the named window if one exists (assuming that it's easy to find a named window without trying to load a new document into it).
