Tried to import a basic field collection setup. The fields seemed to transfer ok, but they didn't get a UUID during the export, and they got one after importing, so the configuration synchronization screen shows a difference that can't be resolved and trying to import again just causes error messages. This may stop a second import from going smoothly.

New field collections do not have a UUID in the database in their entries "field_collection.field_collection.{field_name}"

It seems to be working better but when I try to export a new content type with a basic field collection setup I get an unresolvable difference between active and staging. Re-exporting with this difference seems to make it go away. I looked at the display setup form on both test sites and they seem to be set up the same way so I don't think it should be recognizing a difference.

Turns out this problem happens for basic text fields too so it's a problem with the configuration management system. I also tested a more complex setup with some field collection nesting and it seemed to work fine. If there's any additional problems with configuration management for field collections please open a new issue for it.
