I misspoke myself in my last post. Starting with the next release (0.7.2), the first time that calibre detects that a book on the device is the same as a book in the library, calibre sends new metadata to the device. At that point, the collections for the book will be changed. Second and later attempts don't do this (for performance reasons).

If calibre does not detect that the books are the same or the 'second' caveat applies, then what I said before remains true. You will need to re-add the book. Although I don't see a firm reason for doing so, it is probably best to delete the existing copy before sending the new one.
