Cool, this is a good list - post it to Wiki so we don't lose it.  :-)

By the way, remember that we're constructing this based on keywords
moreso than fixed categories.  So a given image can have both 'Dinosaur'
and 'Animal' keywords.  We would 'parent' the Dinosaur category to
Animal to indicate the relationship.  Then we'd just need to figure out
how to make the browser tool aware of parentage...
