Yes. I have looked at it in the version noted in my post.
The changes are promising.
Although not what I had in mind, they are an improvement if I am using them
properly.

First I select the application eg Document=Writer, Spreadsheet=Calc, etc.
Then I select a Category.
This produces a screen with fewer items which is easier to navigate.

I think this is workable for me.

One suggestion - If a category is empty for a given application, then it is
suppressed from the list of choices for that application.

Thank you to all who are working on this!
