To use cloud collections you need to upload all your non-Amazon content there, and I'm not sure how good of an idea that is. Also, every time I try to load a collection on amazon.com/myk with non-Amazon content in it, the wheel just spins and spins and won't show me a list.
Am I missing something? Is there a better way to manage collections that doesn't involve jailbreaking? I can't believe there's not a better way...

You hit the nail on the head. I have been wanting this ever since I had my first Kindle (circa 2011). I have a Voyage now in which I went through the cumbersome process of jailbreaking and installing Librarian Sync and Collection Manager. I was able to load my large ebook library from Calibre this way, but it did take time.
But I think once my Voyage dies, I am going to move on from Kindle. It's just too difficult to add books the way I want to. My first ereader was the Sony PRS 505, and I miss it like crazy. I actually do a lot of my reading on the Marvin app for ios now.
