So i've noticed this recently after the ff31.0 update, I was looking at my bookmark backup's and noticed instead of it creating a new one for the day it edit's the date instead. For example it would say bookmarks-2014-08-03_469_GlF7e0oNlDYte6ZO+gMhsA== and instead of making a new backup it would do this bookmarks-2014-08-04_469_GlF7e0oNlDYte6ZO+gMhsA== when the bookmark backup was made on the 2014-08-03 Feature? bug?

The xxxx in the name bookmarks-####-##-##_xxxx_$$$$.json that has been there for a while denotes the number of bookmarks in the file and a file hash ($$$$) got recently appended to check if it is necessary to save a new backup, so only if there is a different hash because bookmarks were modified then you get a new backup.

I didn't realize the file name got updated. The Last Modified date/time remains the same so you can see how old the file actually is.
