Keep selection while going from a collection to the root My Library
I have trouble uploading my collections on a group library. I can copy items when I select them from the root, in My Library, but cannot do that, after a ctrl+A, from a collection.
I have signalled already this problem:

By the way I found in addition that the reverse operation is possible! Selecting items on a remote collection and copy them to a local collection; frustrating the reverse operation is not possible!
A way to overpass this problem would be the feature described in the title of the post: go to a collection, select all items there (ctrl+A), go down to My Library, and copy the selected items to the group library in a collection created there before hand.
I summarise:
1. create collection in the group library
2. go to the equivalent local collection in my library, select all
3. go to My Library
4. as selection would be kept copy the selected items to the remote group collection
