Collection and subcollection ideas

I searched for this idea, but haven't seen it - apologies for duplicates.

I would Zotero to offer the ability to update a parent collection when a child subcollection is added to. In other words, let's say I have Collection A with subcollections 1 and 2. When I add a citation to sub 1 or 2, I'd like that to be duplicated in Collection A. This would similar to what happens in the overall library.

This would allow me to dedicate subcollections to chapters, while collecting the entire bibliography in the parent collection.

    Set extensions.zotero.recursiveCollections to true in about:config.
