Pedants will note that UI (user interface) and UX (user experience) are
different things and for the described purpose of package categories,
neither one fits, at all.

ui-apps: Don't all "apps" have UIs, whether X11, Wayland, ncurses, slang,
plain text, or etc.?
ux-apps: What does this even mean? UX refers to the way a user interacts
with an application, not the application itself.
