Add Driver & Keyframes to a Collection

blender_XNXKKISqhy.png One of the features I want to be implemented in Blender is the ability to add Drivers or Keyframe onto a Collection. The reason is that this would help a lot whenever I tried to animate or control multiple objects. Instead of adding Drivers or Keyframe to every single object in the collection, why not just add one Driver or Keyframe to a collection.

The major complication is that an object can exist in multiple collections at the same time. They really need to make a definitive type of "exclusive" collection that doesn't allow objects that co-exist in other collections in order to simplify the thinking behind how to implement features like what you propose.

I have a similar proposal that a collection instance can be manipulated in 3 dimensions so it makes sense to add the 4th dimension, time. Collection instances containing animated elements should have the ability to speed-up, slow-down, and offset the animations happening within them.
