Public bug reported:

Shell plugin caches category models indefinately (only hides them if
they have no results) based on their IDs. This means that if scopes
create categories with unique IDs on every search, we will never reclaim
that memory back.

While scopes should never do that, some actually do - these scopes will
be fixed (https://bugs.launchpad.net/scope-aggregator/+bug/1507666) but
shell plugin should also be smater and remove unused categories.
