Maybe a custom icon that looked like an item on a list... and then
when it was dropped, the collection would light up a similar icon for
a moment.

I wonder if a different cursor shape for DND while hovering over a sidebar
target would help? Maybe not the "copy" cursor used in Windows (arrow with
a small "+" in the lower-right corner), because then it will look like the
item is being duplicated in multiple collections.
