Wow, very cool.

FYI, one of the reasons I haven't yet pushed to contribute is that we 
are moving the "category" information for a page, and the field data 
itself, out of the Wiki text for the page. Thus, I didn't want to 
contribute the code back that has a page category within the wiki text, 
then later contribute an incompatible solution that forces a conversion. 
I wanted to feel that we had settled on one solution (likely category 
and field data off-page), then contribute that.

That is as yet unreleased I believe (hence does not show up in our 
external tarball).
