On the suggestions side:
- As it's being said, multiple selections is a must.
- So is auto-scrolling and the ability to keep collections closed when adding items.
- It would be good to have a visual cue when a book is already part of some collection, such as changing color, etc.
- A floating tooltip could show which collections the book is part of.
I agree with all of this. I just updated to the latest CM and noticed that in my Samples directory CM lists one book, While the Savage Sleeps, multiple times. When I look at the Samples collection with the Kindle itself, it's only there once.

I really, really like the idea of some sort of indication in the left pane that a book is already in a collection. That would make it easy to find new books that need to be put in a collection.
