Jeremy Baron's idea about tracking categories is probably what you want. You 
can write a parser function that, instead of emitting strings (category names), 
actually DOES the categorizing for you. Here is his link again:

I'm creating pages that represent stores, and the format of every store page is 
identical, so each store page transcludes the same store template (which is 
used approximately like this: {{ store_template | storeID }}).
But stores belong to different categories depending on the kinds of goods they 
sell. I have a parser function that, given the storeID, can fetch the right 
good type from a database, so I want to use that function in the store_template 
to categorize every store page dynamically.
