Kindle Collections CAN be used by two people.

This isn't a problem for me as I don't use collections and I don't share me Amazon account with anyone else. But, I certainly hope that Amazon fixes this, and definitely understand why many many KPW2 users are frustrated with the new update!
My wife and I use the Collection feature in the Kindles. I have one Collection Label for the eBooks she is reading and another Label for the eBooks I am reading.

All our other Labels are for eBooks which we have both read (History, Biography, Fiction, Bible Study, etc.). It works perfectly for us and maybe the OP should just use the same work around we use.

It appears the main problem with Collections for many is simply their Labeling conventions - NOT the firmware.
