I created a 'collection' type and specified 'article' as being a valid child type, as well as specifying that 'collection' could be a valid child type. In other words, I wanted collections to hold articles and other collections. The relationship page allows me to do this, but after I create a colleciton, it only allows me to create 'article' children and not 'collection' children.

Is this by design, or is it a bug? If by design, is it a feature you hope to implement?

A parent node type cannot be a child itself. If you select this in the UI the selection will be automatically ignored (you can see this if you go to the edit screen of the relationship). I did not had plans to implement this as a feature as this is the first request to do so. Therefore I will consider this.
