    Another option that will cost a small amount of time is to make a simple
    query before adding the feed:
    
       1. if user has only the root category à la PlanetPlanet it uses the
       current option and auto-adds the feed to Gregarius
       2. If user has more categories than root it popups up a window with a
       dropdown list so people can choose where to add it before proceeding
    
    What do you think abou it?
    
    For me the second will be most used, but I agree that to those that use the
    system as PlanetPlanet it will be useless work :)
    
    Best,
    
    Lopo
