Describe the feature/enhancement

For people who may use collections extensively, adding a book at a time is in itself cumbersome. To top that, when I click on the icon to add to collection, I get a dialog to select the collection, and then have to hover over a collection name to get the "+" button and then click on it. That's 3 steps a bit many.

If instead, we could just show a drop-down (like Plex's add to playlist feature, image attached), it would make it more user friendly and fast.

It's not necessary to add a book at a time, you can multiselect in the library:

Does that solve the issue?

For some reason, I did not try that... I guess, it was because I was picking books from all over the place on my library (some on top, some bottom, etc.) and it didn't strike me multi-select. Cheers mate.
