Bookmarks in iOS

I was delighted to discover that Firefox was available for my iOS device.

Sadly, the poor implementation of bookmarks renders the app useless for me. I have an long list of frequently accessed sites, and these are organized into bookmark folders. On iOS, I discovered that the sync bookmarks are dropped into a folder labelled "Desktop Bookmarks". Then one has to navigate into the subfolder "Bookmarks Toolbar" and then finally to the site that you want to open. A total of seven clicks is required to open a bookmarked page in a new Firefox window!!!

Bookmarks should have been implemented in the 'awesome' screen. The app today is not something that I can use

Yes, that must be on the "to do" list, but actually, I haven't gone looking for the "to do" list.
