Seconded. I have uploaded a few, and mostly selected "Internet" as the 
category, but clearly more relevant categories would help organize the 
"alleys" meant to present applications in the store.

Now that said, I assume that keywords and app names, which are already 
in place, are the main mechanisms for users to find applications right now.
