Thanks for the suggestion.

I entered a "Suggestion" about this ambiguity,
but I found the XMarks forum difficult to navigate through.

I even felt a bit guilty raising the issue there,
as there seems a year-long problem with XMarks synchronisation,
particularly if running XMarks with Firefox.

I don't really have a problem;
I just don't understand why I am asked the question (above).
