Linked Collections between scenes need some kind of Icon to emphasize the fact they are linked
When linking collections between multiple scenes in one blendfile there is no visual feedback or clue at all that a collection was linked from another scene except that the name stays exactly the same.
Normally you would ofc get
Scene 01: Lighting.001
Scene 02: Lighting.002
and so on... When they are linked the name stays the same disregarding where it is right now. (which is good)
But in more complex setups with many many collections and scenes this can become very hard to read and can produce huge errors relatively fast if the linking isnt clear, if for example a second person has to go into the blendfile to change sth.
It would be especially great to get the possibility to kinda "lock" the collection so they can only be edited in its " parent" scene. But the faster approach for now would be some change in the collection Icon. I guess it would need some kind of change to the current linking icon so as not to confuse collections that got linked from outside that file.
