That's certainly a legitimate concern, I just wasn't sure if that was what you were worried about, or if you already had a problem of some sort.

And sorry if you don't think I expressed myself clearly enough. I certainly took pains in trying to do so. I very much appreciate your help but I don't appreciate the apparent condescension especially when the questions are asked in good faith and to the best of my ability.

I regret that you thought I was being condescending. I was helping you in good faith and to the best of my ability. I was also trying to learn a bit more about this issue, and I'm sorry if you thought it was impolite to ask if you were having an actual problem. I've long known that Calibre uses tags for collections on some devices. I just don't know which devices, and not having any, it's not something I can see firsthand. I was just very surprised that some people seemed to be having a problem with collections on the Kindle when it seemed that Calibre didn't yet support collections on the Kindle. It also seemed odd that there were concerns about the new release, as though the use of tags for collections was new, when I thought it had been around for a long time.
Quite honestly, I still can't tell if there are any problems, and if there are, whether they are due to user error, changes in Calibre or changes in the Kindle.
