That's the same behaviour as the existing PyPI. There's a "search" box
on the main page, and a "Browse" link on that page that takes you to a
separate page that lets you select packages by category. I don't see
this as a problem with the new PyPI - far from it, I wouldn't want the
main page cluttered with category filters, if I need then I'll go to
the dedicated browse page.

Just my 2p worth...
