Well, yes. As soon as a Kindle phones home, you should be prepared for Amazon doing whatever they want to your device. Including changing the collections, deleting books (1984, how fitting), etc.

The "ixtab thingy" a.k.a. Collections Manager has options to export/import collections to/from a simple file compatible with calibre. That is almost as good as a full backup - the only thing that it doesn't save is the collection hierarchy (= the nesting).
