Collections Holdout Button in Outliner Is Ignored by Eevee

Holdout button in outliner is ignored in Eevee.

To reproduce, open a new .blend, move the default cube into a new collection, enable the holdout restriction toggle in the outliner and toggle it for the new collection, then press F12. The cube is still visible. Expected behaviour: the cube should be invisible. (and should "erase" or "mask" objects behind it, just like in cycles)

Event Timeline

While the Holdout shader for Eevee has been implemented recently, Holdout for collections is still missing. I'd say it is not a bug, just a missing (yet very desirable) feature. But I'm sure it is on somewhere on @Clément Foucault (fclem)'s long ToDo list :)

Clément Foucault (fclem) lowered the priority of this task from 90 to 50.
