Three Items:

01.  Do I have a conceptual mis-understanding concerning Categories? 
Wherever they appear in the U/I, my users think that they ought to appear in
some sensible order.  Granted the definition of sensible may take some
thought, but shouldn't there me some configuration parameters and/or an
administrative screen for controlling order of display?

02.  Ok, so, I do think it is important.  Is that a problem I should have
been able to solve through the Velocity Macro capability, or is it necessary
to go into the code?  If it is solvable via Velocity, I would appreciate any
example code.

03.  Since I could not solve it at the Velocity Macro level, I have written
and apparently successfully tested code to present Categories in
alphabetical order.  That was just the simplest 'reasonable order' solution. 
Actually, I suppose the correct solution would involve an 'ordering' field
added to the Category class with a corresponding change to thye U/I form to
capture that order as well as re-order when required.  If anyone is
interested, give a shout.
