So, would you suggest that we don't select the collection that the  
item belongs to, but still display it in the detail view? So in some  
cases the item ends up in the All collection but some other  
collection is selected in the sidebar?

Until just recently this wasn't even possible, so that's not how  
QuickEntry used to work.
