1) How do we change the default location for bookmark saving (without having to go into about:config, which we should only want to do for very out there things. Of which choosing default location for add bookmark is not that) 2) How do we make it not only 3 folders when location is clicked (why can't I scroll through all my bookmark folders and click the correct one without having to click choose first. This is a waste of click. Or at least give us the option to start in the choose... UI)

By default, Firefox will keep using the last folder you saved in until you change it. If Firefox isn't showing the "Add Bookmark" panel when you click the star icon in the address bar (or press Ctrl+D), after the star turns blue, click it to open the "Edit Bookmark" panel and check the box for "Show editor when saving" at the bottom of the panel.

By default, Firefox should remember up to 7 recently used folders, listed below Choose... You're only seeing three? (If someone customized "browser.bookmarks.editDialog.maxRecentFolders" to a number lower than 7, you could reset it in about:config.)

As for auto-opening the box to view the full tree, there's no built-in feature for that. Mozilla has a product suggestion site at https://connect.mozilla.org/ (or from inside Firefox, Help > Submit Feedback). If you have time, I think it would be a good idea to post this request there to get into the current feedback stream. Use the "Ideas" section of the site (at https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/idb-p/ideas).
