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.
