Actually, you can make your life easier than that and skip having to do
component modifications:

Make OS releases a root-level "product group", under which you have the
application category "product groups".

So then the structure would be

/ITOS2006/Multimedia
/ITOS2007/Multimedia
/ITOS2007/Multimedia/Canola
etc.

No need for modifying queries or UIs, even breadcrumbs work and each
ITOS version would have a clear URL to relocate to.

BTW, while it it not needed in this case, for future reference: Instead
of misusing database fields, edit the MgdSchema to add fields that
conform to your need. This way when multiple components use same
MgdSchema types you don't get confusion :-)
