Pattern categories


Pattern categories
#1
I'd like to drop the CMF pattern categories. 

As a broader proposal, I'd like to drop pattern categories completely. 

I feel keywords better suited, many patterns cross categories, and we've already ignored the rules in some cases (Nexo shields). Additionally it is felt that choosing the "correct" code is a source of confusing among new authors.

I still find the category groupings useful when searching for a pattern. I can see that it would be unwieldy to continue them as the number of patterns outgrows the allocated codes, but keeping the legacy categories is not without merit.
