What if you set the category in the function? So the function has something like cond (( or (org-category vacation) (org-category f_event)
(background: red))

I obviously don't know how to write it, but the idea is that the categories are already set in the function. I won't have many, three tops, and I won't change them often -- no need to be fully dynamic.

You could maintain this list in an easy-to-access format as a variable near where you implement this function. A dynamic list based on tagged Org items is certainly more complicated.
