Please always put each suggestion in its own bug. In this case your second
suggestion is a duplicate, so it doesn't really matter; re-purposing to be
about the first.

This feels a bit odd of an idea, but maybe it could work. Categories are
another kind of page-level option. Listing them first feels odd. I'd much
rather we came up with a better design for the general concept, but we could do
this as a stop-gap.

… in some skins.

*Adding* editing where the categories are is bug 50239. I think removing
category editing from all the other page-level editing tools is a pretty strong
WONTFIX, however.
