We have a current trend towards splitting big categories. We prefer a single category "Dutch authors" rather than adding two massive categories to an article: "Dutch people" and "Authors". However this approach is pretty clearly a dead-end: how many times can we split? What do we split on next, "Dead Dutch authors"? Good category intersections would really help that one...
I just wanted to point out semantic mediawiki extension, as it solves these problems fairly well. It may be a little difficult for many users, but I don't think it's that bad.
