List Category's
Just considering a category dropdown on the main backend list section. The category could either be Joomla's of Fabrik's own, although I think the former would make more sense as the code is already there.
The idea is if you have lots of lists you may want to group them into categorys. I know we have a filter but that really is dependent on what you call your lists. I'm finding my list names are getting quite long as I'm prefixing them to keep them in order.
For an example I may create a bunch of lists demonstrating the calculation element, therefore being able to select a 'calc' category would bunch them together and only display those lists only.
Not sure how hard it would be to fit this in and keep backward compatability. I'm kinda thinking we can just add it into the params and if it doesn't have an entry it's considered uncatergorised.
Obviously we would probably have to have a 'category' column as well, which may squeeze things up too much.
A rough picture attached.
