Hi Scott, OK, here's another thought of something to try. What happens if you do a search with Command-F from the "Show all Bookmarks" page? This is the regular Mac OS X shortcut, which takes you to the search field within your bookmarks. If I type search terms in for any bookmark, the matches get displayed in table of bookmarks, which I can just navigate to (e.g., with VO-Right arrow). If I press the delete key to remove characters from the search, the full range of table entries for the bookmarks in my selected folder remain in the second bookmarks table. Does any of this work for you with Safari in Lion to get to the table of bookmarks?
