Note that there are other aspects of Iceweasel that we may want to make persistent, like the changes made by the certificate manager. With a pre-generated Iceweasel profile, that could be solved in the same way as with bookmarks. Without it, there would be need for another dedicated extension. However, todo/persistence_preset_-_bookmarks has been updated and it seems that making the bookmarks persistent using this approach may be trickier than I initially thought. Cheers!
