We will have to take care to make this behavior intuitive to users who are used to the old bookmark system and just want to create folders inside their bookmark menu/toolbar and put links in them. The menu/toolbar hierarchy should be visible when categorizing bookmarks (perhaps at the bottom of any labels) with the folders visible. People, who may not realize the correspondence between a label and the separate bookmark menu entry, should even be able to put stuff in the sub-folders of the bookmarks menu.

In most cases, the entries in the bookmarks folder will be simple "soft links" to tags. In most other cases, you'll probably have queries that are ANDs of multiple queries. In both of these cases, we should be able to properly label things that the user drags to the bookmarks menu. Some queries like OR queries we won't be able to do this for. Users advanced enough to do this will probably understand the error.
In most cases, the entries in the bookmarks folder will be simple "soft links" to single tags. Adding a bookmark to one of these links should add the tag. In other cases, this won't be possible (see "Interacting with complex queries" above).
