* are always associated with a particular subcategory, are shown when that
* subcategory node is selected. Each category however has a "general"

* nodes associated with general subcategories naturally appear as child nodes
* of the category node (as a sibling to its subcategory nodes), rather than as
* a child node of a subcategory node.
