What does 'Collect Tracks' do?

Please excuse my ignorance, I just noticed it in the edit menu, and can't think of what it might do. Selecting it doesn't have any obvious effect.
What does it do?

The command's description as shown in the statusbar:
Quote
Adds selected tracks to the system clipboard.

This command is part of the clipboard functionality in foo_utils. It works like "Copy Tracks" except that it appends tracks to the clipboard instead of replacing the clipboard contents when possible. So by using it several times in a row, you can collect tracks to be pasted elsewhere.

Thanks for the explanation. For some reason I never thought of reading what was right in front of me (the status bar).

BTW: It's a very useful feature, when picking out tracks from which to make another playlist.
