If the validator went strictly by the spec (the RNC is informal
anyway) then it couldn’t flag many obvious errors because of
Atom’s mustIgnore nature. Typos like `<caetgory>` would have to
be considered valid, f.ex., even though nothing will process such
a feed correctly.

I am not sure what it is supposed to mean. Isn’t the text in the
element semantically significant? It seems to me you are looking
for this:
<category
scheme="http://example.org/breed"
term="siberian-husky" />
Maybe with a `label="siberian husky"` thrown in for humans.
