Thanks for bringing collections to my attention - I think these would be useful 
for keeping a list of documents that I need quick access to at the top level of 
each of my bbedit projects without actually having to move them around on the 
hard drive. I'm seeing some strange behavior though when I add or remove items 
to/from a collection from different levels of my project hierarchy.

E.g. project hierarchy looks like this:

collection
document0.md
folder1
   document1.md
folder 2
   document2.md
etc.

If I drag document0.md into the collection, it appears to be "moved" into the 
collection in that it now only appears in the collection and not in the top 
level of the project hierarchy. If I drag document1.md into the collection, it 
appears in both the collection and in it's original folder in the hierarchy.

The more disconcerting behavior comes when I select an item in a collection and 
hit the delete key. Items added from a lower level of the project hierarchy are 
simply deleted from the collection but remain in their original location. The 
item that was originally at the top level of the hierarchy is deleted from the 
hierarchy altogether.

Note that none of the above files are actually moved or deleted from the hard 
drive…

Is this considered normal behavior or am I'm missing something?

Thanks,

Craig
