Holding down the Control key does not highlight the collection(s) to which the item belongs.

If true (Z9.0.1 linux here) then I hope this becomes a feature.

Currently, selecting non-contiguous items to copy/move to a collection by using the Control key navigates to any collections in the collections pane that these items are already in, with the effect of likely moving the target collection out of view and needing to be navigated to again.

This is a real problem if you have a lot of collections.

This Control key behaviour is surely now redundant anyway, as the Libraries and Collections button to the right of the item pane performs the same function more eloquently and makes the Z9-current behaviour obsolete.
