Also for Kindle - file describing collections, only describes collections, if case of corruption, you only loose collection information. For Kobo database corruption will cost you more, because you would need to relog, then resync and reprocess all your books. So unless you are absolutely sure what your are doing you probably don't want to mess with SQLite editing Kobo database. In short there is no manual, and it is not a userfriendly task.
