Well that works so far in that the presence of an uncaught Exception
indicates the bookmark doesn't exist.
However there is still an uncaught exception. If this is the best way
to use the API then clearly the API is rubbish.
Wouldn't it be better if an array of BookmarkTreeNodes was passed to
the callback function, like this: function(array of BookmarkTreeNode
results) {...});
If there are no results, then the array is empty.
(This is how chrome.bookmarks.search works)
thoughts?
