Thanks for testing, Vlad! To clarify, for "bookmarks section", do you mean the bookmarks menu, items in the bookmarks toolbar, the Library button in the toolbar, View > Sidebar > Bookmarks, Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks, or something else?

If you mean the bookmarks menu, I don't think it's common (or supported?) to show a context menu when right-clicking menu items on macOS, so this might be a WONTFIX. For all the other places I listed, the context menu shows up for me.

I suspect this is a duplicate of bug 529290, but having more information would be useful.
Hello all,
Sorry for the delayed answer! 

To answer Comment 1 :

I was referring to the Bookmarks menu. It seems that this issue is indeed a duplicate of 529290.

Thank you guys!
