But, the collections status for sideloaded books are not synced, so they don't get put back into the collections.


It should be OK. If you have a recent valid backup, restoring it should fix it.
As an update, I don't think any of this problem was caused by your plugin as I originally feared. Books disappeared from collections again yesterday, and my KA1 LE wasn't anywhere near Calibre. I've manually fixed all the collections now, then added some new books, so things seem OK, but I still don't understand why or how it happened, so I can't prevent it from happening again.
