I number them for the first book in the omnibus, and tag it "Omnibus" and note which books they are in the top of the description. I have a colouring rule that changes their row colour, which is enough to remind me that they're there.
That's pretty much the way I handle it.

When I search for a book or story, I generally type the title in the search bar. if I've added the individual titles to the Description field, the search will find any omnibus edition that contains the title. With short story collections, I often open the book in a viewer, copy the TOC, and paste it into the description so that a search for a story name will find any collections containing it.
