If I understand you correctly, I agree that FireFox should have "Parent 
Folder" be available as a column by default.  It doesn't, though, but 
there is an add-on which I use called "Show Parent Folder" which does 
add that column.  After you install it, in Organize Bookmarks, 
right-click on the column headings in the right-hand pane and select 
Parent Folder.  See https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7372
