Thanks for this: it's very useful. I'm running Chromium, but with a couple of changes it works well.
One hiccup: it doesn't seem to like bookmarks in Japanese. Seems like any bookmark with a Unicode reference for a double-byte character in the "name" field of a Chrome bookmark gets junked in the database and doesn't show up in searches. For example, the Bookmarks record below doesn't get picked up (even though the name contains some non-Japanese text):

[edit]…or maybe not: I just had a look at the database in the Firefox SQLite Manager, and the Japanese looks fine.
