So you are saying when someone submits a macro and adds a
line saying

  @category Evil Space Nazis Destroyed Atlantis

into the documentation, then we should distribute it that
way?

I think it would be better to edit it to say

  @category Automake

instead -- at least if the submitted macro belongs into that
category.

The idea behind categories in the Macro Archive is that the
categorization helps the user, you know. Categories weren't
added so that you can publish your favorite Haiku on the
index page.
