Gnome-documents bugs

Hi,

We missed out on testing gnome-documents as part of the test day
recently. I decided to finally switch to using gnome-documents and its
collections, rather than a folder based organisation system one fine
day. This is when I ran into a number of bugs. Some of them are quite
annoying, and if we're encouraging users to switch to using the default
gnome apps that doesn't need a folder based organisation system, getting
them fixed before F21 release would be really good. I'm listing them
here just to get them some visibility since 3.13.91 is already out of
the door and 3.14 is fast approaching:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735864 - documents disappear
from collections (my entire collections vanished later)

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735949 - lists but doesn't
open google documents (spreadsheets/pdfs/docx files do not open on
clicking them)

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735862 - Adding to collection
does not show new collection in dialogue and documents view is not
updated until another collection is accessed 

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735863 - Permits duplicate
collection names  (I ran into this as a result of the previous one - I
kept trying to add docs to collections, and it kept creating one new
collection after another with the same name.)

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735881 - [RFE]Differentiate
collections from normal documents to make them easier to find  (when
they're all mixed, it's difficult to find either docs or collections
without searching)

These are just ones I've filed recently but they turned up while
following a normal daily gnome-document workflow - organise and view
documents - which is important functionality for the workstation
product.
