Bug#851061: Collections don't work at all, do they?

Package: gnome-documents
Version: 3.22.0-1

I've reproduced this on three accounts on two computers running
Debian/testing:

I successfully followed the help to create a collection of some related
documents.

Now, if I click on the Collections button on the top, I see the
collection, with its name and an icon built from thumbnails of four of
the documents I placed into the collection. But then, what?
- Nothing happens when I click on the collection item.
- I can select the collection with the ✓ button, but nothing more: at
the bottom, buttons for Open, share, print, delete, Collections, and
Properties appear, but they are all disabled.
- The collection does not appear in the Documents view.
- The collection does not seem to appear elsewhere.
To summarize: It seems to be as useless as teats on a boar.  :-/

While there's a help page explaining how to create collections it is
silent about what to do with it.

If there is some use, then it should be documented, so people can find out.
