Well that's not exactly the point I was trying to make :).
It seems strange if 99% of the functionality is encapsulated within a plugin,
and requires 1 specific line in a library.. It seems to make much more
sense to write something generic that could take care of situations like
these.

Hmm, I can see this working if there are 10 categories, or even 50, but
not more. This doesn't seem to scale well at all. A lits with incremental 
search would be ideal (Midnight Commander style)...
