Maintaining that by hand would be really awkward.

Unless you have a view that doesn't show books in collections (which renders the need obsolete), how do you know which books are in collections?

I suppose you *could* manage that with a collections manager on your computer (calibre?) but as I understand it you cannot even export collections from a Kobo. You can do a two-way collections sync with a (jailbroken) Kindle, but you don't need to, for this at least.
