So, I found that the "stock" module seems to be what has been giving me
access to change product categories. Specifically, being in the
warehouse management group.

However, without "stock" installed (just accounting), it's the sales
manager group that gives me access to edit products. However, it doesn't
give access to edit product categories, which doesn't make much sense to
me. I went to Settings -> Groups -> Sales Management / Manager -> Edit
-> Access Rights -> Create and added full access for product categories,
and this is the behavior I'd expect by default. It doesn't make much
sense to be able to edit products but not categories.

Title:
  Product categories viewable but not creatable or editable after
  installing product module

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  New

Bug description:
  From a clean database, install the Accounting and Finance application.
  This will indirectly install the product module, which creates menus
  to create and edit products and product categories. Products can be
  edited and created, but product categories not. When attempting to
  edit the automatically created "All Products" category in the web
  interface, all the fields in the form are read-only. Attempting to
  create a new product category presents a form with all the input
  fields disabled.

  I know from my testing that installing more modules will make this go
  away, but I haven't yet determined exactly which ones. I'm guessing
  that the product module creates the necessary menus and models, but
  the necessary ACLs to enable users to modify product categories live
  elsewhere.

  I'm using a recent nightly build of 6.1 from the Debian packages
  provided on openerp.com. Dpkg reports version 6.1-20121130-002722-1,
  installed on Debian Squeeze.
