Save same bookmark in multiple folders without having to do it manually. Is there and add-on that can help me fix this issue?

If I have a bookmark in a folder and I save a new folder that may overlap with the old bookmarks the bookmarks from the old folder are automatically removed, this is a problem for me and I cant always manually go fix it.

If I have a folder named A1-D1 that has bookmarks A1, B1, C1 & D1 & now I am searching bookmarks related to A & want a new folder A1-A4 with bookmarks A1, A2, A3 & A4 when I save the new group of bookmarks it removes A1 from A1-D1, which is horrible. & its very time consuming & frustrating to have to manually fix this every time. I know Firefox did this on purpose to prevent duplicate bookmarking but this is worse than having the the same bookmark being repeated more than it needs to. Now when I am looking at folder A1-D1 i don't even know how many of them have disappeared & have to search all over again. I hope they fix it soon. Please let me know if there is an add-on that will prevent Firefox form ruining my bookmarks.

This extension gets around that limitation for me.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-bookmark-here-2/

Really nothing to be fixed, that "feature" was added to Firefox 3 when the "Tags" feature was added to Firefox bookmarks. The concept is to use Tags to categorize a single bookmark with multiple Tags, instead of the user saving the same bookmark to multiple folders. I don't care for Tags and save the same bookmark to whatever folders I want it in using that extension.
