(Note, I do want support for nested collections, not simply folder structure.)

In terms of storage space, there's already more than enough room for my library even with just 4GB (barring graphic novels). It's library management that's the sticking point. That's why right now, I only store less than a few hundred titles on my ereader - to keep both the number of collections and number of titles in a collection manageable/browsable.
That's pretty much the way I approach it. Non fiction is more or less manageable for me since I don't have more than a few hundred in any one category (i.e. History-American, History-Roman, History-WWII, etc...). SF&F is a different story all together. Since my Kobo is mostly used for hiking, I have a number of collections for the books that I normally want for hiking trips (to be read books, LOTR, various series)
