I certainly agree with you; however, I like the notation shown
above better than the cutoff notation that we currently have in
the options files.  It also makes it more obvious how to drop
down to _just_ two output categories.  That it makes it easier
for people to generate more than three categories is something
that I find completely uninteresting and unobjectionable. ;-)
