Actually this is a mistake. It should always prefer explicit property (#+CATEGORY) over implicit (#+TITLE). So the order should look like (if the user modifies the variable, highest to lowest): - #+CATEGORY (if present) - #+TITLE (if present AND if user sets the variable) - file name Apologies for confusion.
