I created contrib/export2collection.lua that adds a new exporter, file to collection. The selected images are exported, then imported back into the collection and grouped with the original images. All tags, except the darktable ones, are copied over as well as any ratings. The pull request has been submitted to get it into the script repository. In the meantime you can get it from https://github.com/wpferguson/lua-scripts/blob/export2collection/contrib/export2collection.lua
