Describe the bug
Firefox is at 4.4.6 and Chrome is at v 4.3.0. Sync between them messes up the order of bookmarks an folders

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. delete bookmarks.xbel on the server
  2. save a new one form chrome
  3. delete all bookmarks from firefox
  4. sync Firefox with the new xbel (with merge)
  5. See the order of the files how bad it is
  6. Also it gets the following error:
    E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist E013: Folder to remove doesn't exist

However, when the sync is set to overwrite the locals there is no error and the order is fine.

Expected behavior
Same order of bookmarks

I guess the fact you can select the write over that works should be enough
