Comment (by mascguy):

 While I understand the frustration with GitHub truncating the list, I also
 agree with Ryan on the number of categories we already have: For a given
 port, there are often cases where there isn't a clear-cut primary category
 to place them in. If it's a development-related port - but also falls into
 the category of other things, like a system utility, security, etc - it's
 difficult to pick one.

 And if we expand the list of categories, that's simply going to further
 exacerbate the issue.
