Yes.  That's what I told the "Sharing" people at the time they wanted to
somehow promote the "Sharing" plugins.  Didn't happen that way.

Luckily, the categories are no longer defined in the UI spec but in the
Application manager sources themselves, so we have full control over
them.

(I forgot to update them in the Fremantle branch, but that is now
fixed.  Sorry if that caused any confusion.)
