Hello Brian,

1. Thank you for your suggestions about categories.
I will think about implementing your ideas in the future versions.

2. Upgrade versions do not overwrite categories or formulas 
(at least this should not happen - if this happened to you
please give me the hint what exactly has happened)

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
