Description

Sometimes, I have to open frequently some URLs. If I want to be able to access them easily, but have many bookmarks, I have to organise my often accessed URLs by moving them on the top of my bookmarks list, thus I don't need to scroll down every time.

Would it be possible to add two more options under the "More options" button (visible when one long press a bookmark in order to select it) in BookmarksActivity.

The extra options would be:
  1. "Move to Top"
  2. "Move to Bottom"

Side note: I already know I can circumvent this issue using folders. Putting everything in a folder except often accessed links. But it would be useful to propose an easier way via these two supplementary options.

This is an interesting idea. I don't imagine many people would find this useful, but there is also plenty of space in the Bookmarks Activity options menu, so I would be fine implementing this.

I don't think this is even necessary. My suggestion to this in a better way of implementation, is to literally scrap bookmark reordering completely. Force bookmarks in alphanumeric order (#1025). Then use ASCII order precedences and use the first character of your bookmarks to keep them on the top.

For instance, my bookmarks are always in ASCII order (even inside folders). Even if I want to keep one at the top, I give no hesitation to name it's first character to move it up.

For example, I would use period . to move something to top.

Some users really, really, really don't want their bookmarks to be organized in alphabetical order. Forcing everyone to do so would be counter productive to Privacy Browser's good UX.
