However, I do think that Adam's initial request to make the
category available as a special property for queries in not

I'm convinced it's not unreasonable :)
I am not sure, though, if the #+CATEGORY category should be
available with `org-entry-get', because it would then be very
hard for the property API to make a difference between a value
that is intimately associated with the current entry, and a
value that might be derived by some other mechanism. So here I
differ somewhat from Adam's feeling that category is just like
TODO or a tag. It is different.
Then a search like CATEGORY="cat" would also return entries which
CATEGORY property is not "cat"... ok, maybe this doesn't hurt that
much for search purposes. But I expect someone will come in three
month complaining that `org-entry-get' didn't return the category,
even though he set it up through #+CATEGORY.
