Make Collections work like Folders

I really like how collections help me stay organized, but I want to be able to drag a mesh into the folder and have it enter the Collection and disappear from the general outliner. I don't just want the object to be linked to the Collection. I want it to actually become a part of it. Like a Folder. Is this something you're working on?

Have you used the outliner in ViewLayer display mode? It's pretty much exactly that. Drag an object inside a collection and it becomes part of it, it's moved inside (you need to hold Ctrl for it to be linked in both).

How would you handle the situation where an object is in multiple collections?
