No 'Categories' field in GnomeDitemEdit

There is no way of editing a launcher's category using the launcher's property dialog
Okay, this is actually in libgnome-desktop
discussed with mark on irc, there could be issue of whether changes made to the categories field should be dynamically reflected.waiting for mark to be back on line.
Mark: I'm unclear why this is high priority?
There is no good way to do a GUI for this currently, because what we really need is a list of all known keywords (or descriptions of what they do), otherwise it will be an ugly comma separated list or something. It also breaks UI and string freeze. I think leaving this as a manual edit is fine for now.
Yeah, it's fine to leave this off for now. The vfolder proposal has a list of allowed keywords, but those need to be better published and then we need some nicer UI for this. For file style editting of menus we don't really need/want this since there the actual vfolder nature is hidden from the user. What we really want is to have a menu editting "view" for nautilus that would handle correctly editting the vfolder file including all the categories and all that fun kind of stuff.
Closing as invalid, as this shouldn't be shown to the user, and no one seems to really want it anyways.
