It is surprisingly hard to keep categories consistent. If there is
a way to say "here I am browsing method M in category G of class C,
is there an ancestor of C that puts the selector of M in a different

my Smalltalk is on the TODO list.)
Richard,
There is Browser>>#categorizeAllUncategorizedMethods that works this way
in Squeak but for uncategorized methods.
But then, a tag-set would be more useful than just single
categorization. It doesn't matter how accurate a category is, there will
always be someone who will find an equally justifiable reason for
putting a method into a different category ;-).
Is it possible to have a pragma or dummy method (say tags:) to list tags
that could be extracted to facilitate searches? It should not have any
runtime impact.
