[pilot-db-list] Category Support

[Larry K. T. <LK...@me...>]

I looked in the List Archives, but didn't find about this.

Does DB support Categories at the record level as ThinkDB/SmartList does?
If not, is there any plan to add this?

Great app and getting better all the time.
Larry

	Nope. Nope.  DB uses Categories to identify items from recent 
searches, and to quickly swap between different filters, so the category 
data structure is already in use.  But perhaps the greater question is why 
would you want categories per se?  Wouldn't this be best defined as simply 
another field in the database, like a list?  You could easily emulate 
categories with such a field and a set of filters, and this is a much more 
powerful representation.
