If you give me a good reason I'll be persuaded. If however you look back at the herds proposal there is no linkage between categories and herds. To add this would possibly introduce that. I also want to have some kind of meaning added on putting herd and maintainer in category metadata. Especially for maintainer it would seem strange that someone could maintain all packages in a category.
