System Information
Operating system:
Graphics card:

Blender Version
Broken: 2.93
Worked: 2.92

When trying to access context.collection from the Object Properties or Object Data Properties tab it returns None. This seems to be related to 3e87d8a431

This breaks some addons that adds panels in these tabs like for example Tissue.

When I comment out the code on lines 888-891 in buttons_context.c it works like in 2.92 (but probably breaks something new).

  if (CTX_data_equals(member, "collection")) {
    set_pointer_type(path, result, &RNA_Collection);
    return 1;
  }

Reproduce by opening the attached Blend file and run the script in the script editor. This will create a new "Hello World Panel" in Object Data Properties that shows the name of context.collection.

Eh, yes, this is messing with the context collection in unexpected ways, see for example where this was formerly set in OBJECT_PT_collections:

col.context_pointer_set("collection", collection)
