Title (Goal)	Manage collections and compound objects.
Primary Actor	Collection Manager, Site Administrator
Scope	Content Management
Story	As a collection manager, I wish to be able to delete, move, and share pages and repository objects individually and en masse between collections/compound objects.

Framing this use case against islandora 7,

• From a collection/compound's landing page, I want to manage its members. this means:
• deleting some or all of the members
• moving some or all of the members to a different collection/compound
• sharing some or all of the members with a different collection/compound

• Model complex objects like books, newspapers, and generic "compound" objects #868
• Add a 'Manage Collections' page #1336
• Breadcrumbs for object in multiple collections #1777 (what to do when objects are shared)
• Recursive delete over objects in a collection #628

This can be done, it requires:

• Views Bulk Operations
• Views Bulk Edit (for moving/sharing)

What VBE lets you do is set a field value, and you must select whether to:

• add this value to existing values
• replace existing values

What you are NOT able to do is move nodes from collection A to collection B if they are also members of various other collections.
