Suggested feature: Add to custom collection

[andersjohansson]

Hi, thanks for this brilliant software. It seems to work great with my PRS-T3S.

A way of separating the pdfs synced with prsam (work for me) from the e-books (leisure) on the reader, would be by adding them to a custom collection, making it a little easier to browse when you have a lot of files on the reader.

This would involve writing to the database files. I don't know if this is messy but Calibre seems to do it (http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq.html#can-i-use-both-app-and-the-sony-software-to-manage-my-reader) so it shouldn't be impossible, but perhaps it is much work for small gain.

Cheers,
Anders Johansson

Great to hear. I don't have a T3 for testing, so this is welcome news!

I'm embarrassed to admit that this has bothered me, but I never
considered using collections to fix it. This is a pretty good idea,
and I'm definitely interested in it. I've been avoid writing to the
database to avoid messing things up, so I wouldn't want this to be the
default. But it seems completely reasonable to make this an option
with a warning.

I'm traveling this month, so I won't have time to look at this soon.
Feel free to remind me about this in June.
