I'd also like to see this, I just posted some comments against the bug.

I can. Recently I upgraded to Epiphany at work (having used it at home
for a long time and come to enjoy it.) Well, one problem I ran into is
that at work I had a whole ton of Bookmarks to import from Mozilla. To
be able to categorize these (over 100), it would have been much easier
to just be able to select the bookmark and see what categories it
belonged to in order to see if I needed to drag it to an additional
category. I envision maybe making any category that it belongs to bold.
That seems almost obvious to me. To make it more Utilitarian, you could
add a checkbox to the left of each category and populate the checkbox
when a bookmark is selected as belonging to the category. Then you could
edit the categories by checking the box, or by dragging to the category.
Multi-selections become a pain at that point, though, that would take
some thought, but I think it's doable.
