Additional Context

This is the same problem as in 12914 but in a different place and in the web vault and not browser extension.

Changing the appearence of the drop down to what I propsed in 12914 would work.

Also, the approach of using a dropdown seems a bit weird since dropdowns are normally used for selecting a single item and not multiple items. I think using check boxes or radio buttons would be more sufficient but not sure how that would look given all the sub-collection paths.

Another possilbe approve would be allowing us to select the parent collection and then that cascading down to all sub-collections. Then if there is a sub-collection we do not want to give access to, then have another screen or something to deselect that sub-collection. Almost like Windows NTFS and breaking inheritance.

Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

Also, once you get to a certain number of collections selected, you can no longer select anymore collections.
This could be prevented if there was a "Select all" option as that is what I am trying to do.

#12914 is the web browser extension dealing with assigning items to a collection.

This report is for the vault, dealing with assigning permissions to a collection.

These are totally different issues.
