In section "7.2 Special properties" the current online org manual says:

"The following property names are special and should not be used as keys
in the properties drawer:

CATEGORY

Is it correct to have "CATEGORY" in that list? I thought that putting it
as a key into the property drawer just is how to specify categories.

It is in the list because it is a special property.  So for example
        
    (org-entry-get nil "CATEGORY")

will get you a value for the category even it it is not defined as a property of the current entry. It will use inheritance and also # +CATEGORY lines.

But you are right that it *is* allowed in drawers - I have updated the manual accordingly.
