I posted into a Commons user sandbox: User:Alex brollo/O_Categories a more detailed talk about novel use of self-transcluding categories. . I'd like to have a try into Commons, but I need some feedback from you. I don't want to waste Commons Category: namespace without a sound reason. ;-)

I'm presently discussing into it.source an idea to use categories in a new way, with an "ontology-like" approach that allows a much more effective use of +incategory (category intersection) and multi-axial categorization. As a pathologist, I'd like to test this approach in [[Category:Pathology]]  and [[Category:Histopathology]] fields, merging them. Nothing will be changed, but creation of a limited number of new "keyword-like" categories, with some simple tranclusion trick inside their code, and use of them into image pages, nor there's any need of any extension or special code.

My question is: have I to discuss here a little more this project, or is it better to implement boldly a limited example of my idea, to discuss it on with a running example?
