Good question. IMHO, all position independent stuff (ie, metadata)
would be better off saved separately, and edited separately. As a
legacy solution, users could still type [[Category:Blah]] in the main
edit box, but at save time, it would be moved to the metadata area.

References are another example of location-independent metadata that
should be dealt with like that. But honestly, the Usability people
seem to be doing a pretty good and know what they're doing. Do they
need more ideas from us?
