One solution which comes to my mind is to bind 
#+CATEGORY: CR
to the previous heading, just the way the task keyword SCHEDULE, etc. do.

One possible use case, where this would break the actual beheavious,
which comes to my mind is categorisation of a task list, eg.

* Tasks
#+CATEGORY: @WORK
** TODO Task 1 
** TODO Task 2
#+CATEGORY: @HOME
** TODO Task 3

but maybe it would always be possible (and maybe more outliner like)
to categorize via additional Subheadings:

* Tasks
** @WORK
#+CATEGORY: @WORK
*** TODO Task 1 
*** TODO Task 2
** @HOME
#+CATEGORY: @HOME
** TODO Task 3

No Idea, how easy such an behaviour could be implemented.

PS. I was reading this list via gmane for a while, this is my first
post, so let me say, how much I appreciate this fantastic emacs-mode,
which definitely did change my personal planning to the better !
