That reminds me of my attempt to add those "categories" to the man pages

where they landed. It died off, though: I preferred just specifying the
category (maybe with a long form), others including the whole
explanation of the category (which I thought would be too much text; we
have the glossary for that).

Would something like that help? Maybe "category" plus optionally pointer
to a related command in the "other" category.

Maybe a "SCRIPTING" section at the end of the page?
