Then a search like CATEGORY="cat" would also return entries which
CATEGORY property is not "cat"... ok, maybe this doesn't hurt that
much for search purposes. But I expect someone will come in three
month complaining that `org-entry-get' didn't return the category,
even though he set it up through #+CATEGORY.
Anyway, not *that* important, as Adam said earlier... let's try.
