Hi Marco, I'm not sure if you are not actually mixing together 2 different things. data* controls are meant to be used only within dialogs used in data module to create and edit instances of given data type. This is what you see configured in config:/modules/data/dialogs/category/mainTab/relatedUUID. Those controls cannot be used in the website dialogs to refer to the data type instances.
What categorization uses to refer to category items is a special categorizationUUIDMultiSelect control as you can see in config:/modules/categorization/dialogs/generic/tabCategorization/categories.
