Would it make sense to give this a different name like Dima's
suggestion of sagemath-core or something else like sagemath-base,
sagemath-minimal etc?

I haven't looked at what is in sagemath-categories but it sounds like
its purpose is to be a smaller more manageable part of the Sage
software rather than to support any clearly contained branch of
mathematics. That seems very reasonable to me but it helps everyone if
the names for packages line up with their purposes.
