OK, As an experiment I created a diagram using a simple graphical editor 
(Inkscape) just to start thinking about layout and level-of-detail 
issues. This is a very tiny subset of the category structure but do you 
think it is enough to draw any conclusions about what would be useful?

The diagram is on this page:

Also, on this page, I have tried to gather together some of the 
interesting information that has come from this thread. Hopefully, if it 
were expanded and corrected it may find its way into more official 
documentation, tutorials and wikis.
