I can confirm that this works pretty brilliantly.

Thanks, Carsten!

Well, you can customize org-agenda-prefix-format and remove the "%-12:c" from 
each of the strings where you do not want the category to be shown.  Note that 
the two leading space characters in these formats are necessary IIRC, for 
technical reasons.

(setq org-agenda-prefix-format
  '((agenda . " %i %?-12t% s")
(timeline . "  % s")
(todo . " %i ")
(tags . " %i ")
(search . " %i "))

Not quite: it is the "category" of the item which, if absent, is
defaulted to the filename. Check section 10.4.1, "Categories", of
the org manual for more information - evaluate the following:

(info "(org) Categories")

AFAIK, you cannot eliminate it in any simple way.
