  The Category one is completely bonkers! For example in the Productivity
category, there's the Windows Security UI! :-( But to be [f|F]rank, some
of the others are not *that* bad. But for me, most is in Other (Duh!),
even things like Thunderbird! :-( Anyway, the good thing is you can turn
it off (i.e. use Grid or List).
