I could not find a bug for this, so I filed
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11618

Hmm, this might work. Selection and overlay are different things as
currently implemented, but it seems to me like we could get rid of the
whole overlay terminology and icons: collections are either selected or
not (and multi-select would effectively mean overlay).

Overlay was also one of the terms I had trouble with when translating
Chandler to Finnish; selection would be easy.
