Feature Request: Collections support

[dchawisher]

This is a fantastic piece of software. I would like to encourage you to add Collections support. I understand that you've previously been asked about that (on the Mobileread forum) and replied that it is a very low priority, so I just wanted to add my voice to those requesting the feature.

I considered trying to add it myself, but I don't know Go. However, if there is anything else that would help you add this feature (for instance, a description of the Kobo collections schema or the calibre/Kobo extended driver interface for assigning collections), please let me know and I will help however I can.

I have no plans for implementing it at this stage.

To do this, I would need to understand how Calibre sends shelf/collection info in the metadata it sends (I think it's there, I just haven't looked closely at that part of it), and figure out the SQL required to update the database (which can be obtained from the Calibre Kobo driver).

I'm working on something in NickelDBus that may make this a possibility without SQL at some point, but no promises!

I understand. Thank you for the quick reply.
