Improve bookmark management

Bookmark management should be improved by adding at least these two options:

-The bookmarks popup panel needs to have a option to open the full page Bookmarks - the real bookmarks manager. Otherwise, many users will never discover that Opera actually has the real bookmarks manager: by default, there's no obvious way to access it.

-The full page Bookmarks manager must have a standard way of selecting multiple bookmarks. That is, just the way users select multiple files in the Finder - or multiple bookmarks in any other browser, for that matter.

This will bring Opera yet closer to perfection.

ok i see... there's indeed a link that opens full Bookmarks view at the bottom of the panel... i didn't noticed it as I only checked the 3-dot menu at the top.

however, it still don't see any way to select multiple bookmarks in the full view in the following way:

select the first desired bookmark > hold shift > select the last desired bookmark to select at once all bookmarks between the first and last selection (just like you select files in the Finder or bookmarks in other browsers).

you'll need to select each bookmark separately to add them to the selection of multiple bookmarks.

or am I missing something?

Yeah, that way doesn't work. But, you can do a rectangle select of multiple bookmarks. Just left-click, hold and drag to select multiple bookmarks. You just have to start the drag outside of any bookmark zone. If you switch to list view so that all bookmarks are just listed by name with tiny icons, you can start the drag outside the left of the first bookmark you want and continue dragging to the last bookmark you want.

It should really work the way you suggest though, but it doesn't.
