IIRC this was a recurrent issue on this list.

Yes. We can imagine something like %^c (prompt for a category with
proper completion). But then why not %^s for the SUMMARY property?
And %^d for the DESCRIPTION property? My answer try to avoid going
into this, since I (still) think handling properties from within a
remember template is a bit too much. But I might be wrong.

You can use property inheritance. Ask your remember template to put the
entry in the right subtree, and use a category for that entry only.
Isn't this more simple?
