One more quick bug report...

Collections with a " (double quote) in the name do not get escaped (as is done by the kindle when creating such a name) and cause the kindle to be unable to process the collections.json file. I haven't had time to try other special characters yet (found this by accident).

Kindle created name with ":
"\"Robert J. Sawyer\"@en-US":{"items":[],"lastAccess":0}

App created name with ":
""Robert J. Sawyer"@en-US":{"items":[],"lastAccess":0}
