Hmm... so 

<Include>
 <And><Category>foo</Category><Not><Category>bar</Category></Not></And>
</Include>

would not allocate the "bar" items and

<Include>
 <And><Category>foo</Category></And>
</Include>
<Exclude>
 <And><Category>bar</Category></And>
</Exclude>

would allocate the "bar" items then?

I guess that would work.
