I do already have first level headlines each with its own CATEGORY in which
I refile my tasks.  Therefore the #+CATEGORY: property on top of the file
does not appear in the agenda view unfortunately.

I'd have loved though to be able to switch from one view (home+office view)
to another (office view) without having to reconstruct the whole agenda.
