Like others in this thread, I would caution *against* overloading P31
"instance of" if possible.
When a somewhat similar issue came up, re how to artists that were of
interest the the "Black Lunch Table" project
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q28781198 that works on coverage of visual
artists of the African diaspora, the solution adopted (after quite a
vigorous debate at Project Chat) was to use property P972 "catalog" with
the value Q28781198 to mark artists that were of interest to the project.
A similar approach could be used here, if a project has a list of works
of interest, that it would be valuable to record inclusion in.
Best regards,
James.

I can't see anything that needs any kind of special structure at the entity
level. Not even sure whether we need a new container for this, claims are
already unordered containers.

create a Wikidata class called "Wikidata item collection" [Q-X]
This sounds like Wikimedia categories, as used on Wikipedia and
Wikimedia Commons.
