Automatic Deployment Computer Collections for ConfigMgr Apps

For ConfigMgr Apps OptionsCan you add an option to create a collection and deploy the application automatically to it? We do this currently with our scripting - this way, our helpdesk is trained to find a collection for the application and add the devices to it. We use a naming convention \'AppPublisher - AppName AppSubname AppVersion (x86/x64) (YYMM) - Manual Target\'The two reasons for this are - helpdesk ease of use, and we have an automation tool to read these collections and copy them between machines for new users or machine replacements filtered by the name. So, if a new user starts, we can query any \"- Manual Target\" collections and push them to the new users computer and they\'ll get all of the software automagically.I assume it\'ll be fairly simple to do - we have it create the collection if it doesn\'t exist, deploy the application as required and distribute the content (your publisher already does the distribution)
