Why would you be searching by looking in categories anyway? There are 
tons of dedicated search tools.

I actually object to having crap in dev-python, because things should be 
categorized functionally instead of by the language they're implemented 
in. 90% of the time you don't care about the language. But category 
moves are pretty much pointless, so I don't normally bring it up.
