I would like to see the feature request for multiple local collections come true. Since this is a big 
change to the way amarok handles its collection(s) it would IMO be ideally suited for GSOC.

For more info about what is envisioned:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197573
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207358

Especially the feature mentioned in the second report is something that would rock my world (since my 
classical collection is already taking up more space and soon probably also more playing time than the rest 
of my music :D)

Since I am a student maybe I could find a way to actually take it on, but that might be hard since I will 
start my master thesis this year. Even if I can not try this myself would like to participate in this in 
any way, e.g. testing etc.

Kind regards
