Seeing the collections an item is in
The function has been around for a while: one presses Option (Mac), Control (Windows), or Alt (Linux) key while the item is selected and the relevant collections are highlighted. For those of us with hundreds of collections, though, this output is suboptimal: if an item is in disparate collections and those collections are far apart, not all of them are visible in the left sidebar at once, and there is no way to tell if more collections than those one can see are hightlighted, since while this is going on scrolling is not possible.
I think that this mechanism could use an overhaul. I would prefer a situation in which the list of collections were generated as part of the item information and shown, for example, in the right side bar along with everything else.
