It’s cool that you have this, category filters are very useful. But it’s not
discoverable from the user interface so it’s very unlikely that people will
know they exist (except if they are reading this message ;-) ). How about
adding a ‘filters’ UI element at the top, that adds the #<relevant> expression
to the search string when a filter is selected?
