I wrote the following to accomplish this, but it would be much nicer
if you could use (org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'category "mycategory").
(defun org-agenda-skip-select-category-function (category-to-select)
"Creates a function suitable for use with
`org-agenda-skip-function' which skips all items except for those
in the provided category."
`(lambda ()
(if (equal (org-get-category) ,category-to-select)
nil ;; don't skip
;; The invisible-ok param below seems to be needed
;; in order to avoid infinite loops:
(org-end-of-subtree t))))
