Has this combination of lists and categories been

Has any language of Wikipedia decided on a policy for or against
such a combination? What experience exists about advantages and
drawbacks?
People say lists are good because you can annotate them. What would be
nice would be the ability to annotate categories. Instead of only
being able to set the sort order, you could add some text to the
article that appeared on the category page itself using, for example,
[[category:people|Wikimedia board member|{{defaultsort}}]].

How is this different from fixing something that is not broken?
Wouldn't it be more useful to hammer home the (astonishing!)
concept that lists are not evil?
