Would I be correct in assuming that these terms will be key words added 
to the model metadata and that the division into categories on the main 
repository page will be assembled from queries on each of these 
predefined key words? And if so, I'm gonna further assume that there are 
no issues with having a model in more than one category, right?

And what are the consequences for a model not fitting into any of these 
categories?

I'd suggest that multiscale is a bit too general to be useful in this 
sort of setting, as its conceivable that pretty much every model in the 
repository is multiscale in some sense.
