And yes it should be both fun and interesting, (with a small bit of frustration and torture thrown in). What would life be without challenges. Keep us informed

The Kindle Collections plugin allows me to specify exceptions for the collections created for any given column. For example, I use the Reading Lists plugin, which assigns a tag to my custom "lists" column when a book is added to a given list. Some of those lists I also want as collections, but some I don't, so I set the exceptions in the Collections plugin to ignore those I don't want.

Since the lists that DO get used for collections are pretty consistent, I can just copy those list tags to the Sony collections column. (It was a happy day when I realized that the "search and replace" tab does a lot more than just search and replace. )I generally process books in batches, and only update my reader every few weeks, so it only adds one fairly quick extra step (with a saved "search and replace") each time I want to add a batch to the reader.
