Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or code entry points. Start by reproducing the collection loss in Insomnia 8.6.1 on macOS, comparing behavior with 8.6.0, and tracing how collections are loaded and persisted when the app opens. Done means collections remain saved after reopening without data loss.
