Proprositions for a useful categorization of zsh options?



Dear fellow zsh junkies,

I am trying to categorize the current 141 zsh options for obvious
reasons. Unfortunately zshoptions(1) is no big help as it is just
alphabetically sorted. The Users' guide gives some limited
suggestions.

So these are my categories[1]:

* Compatibility
* Completion
    * ambigious
    * displaying
* Globbing
* History
* Miscellaneous (the "no category category")
* Pushd/Popd


Any suggestions for improvements are welcome...

* option "foo" should be in category "bar" instead of category "baz"?

* other reasonable categories?

* superfluous categories?


Thanks in advance,
Thorsten
