Hello there,
before asking my question, I humbly ask you to read these posts:
Number 1
Number 2
As you just (hopefully) read, I manage my content locally and actually do want to use the "Docs"-category on my PW2. Simply because it makes managing collections on the device easier.
Putting everything in the "Books"-category, switching to a collection and then use "Add/Remove Items", will show me a list where sideloaded ebooks and cloud-stored ebooks are mixed up, without any possibility to filter them.
Putting stuff into the "Docs"-category will show me a list with sideloaded ebooks only.
Doing this with Calibre and mobi-7-files is quite easy, since it has an output-option called "Personal Doc Tag". This doesn't even alter the original file in the library, since it just tags the copy transferred to the device.

But what about KF8-formatted AZW3-files? How to I force them to appear in the "Docs"-category? Reading this post looks like I have to alter the original AZW3-file.
An example would be a fixed-layout epub or similar. Some kind of file that is not supported by the PW2 natively, but would be fine using the KF8-formatting.
This is all giving me a headache.
