Three years ago I would agree completely and immediately that it should be an extension, especially with localization in mind, but nowadays VE already does category editing quite well.
That said, VE still requires entering the editing mode and then clicking another button. Editing *only* categories is a very frequent scenario. An extension, or a kind of a VE module, that only edits categories would definitely be useful.
Please don't see it as stop energy - it's just a thought.

It's universally liked, is there almost on every wiki, and provides a much needed functionality. Why isn't this deployed as an extension, or better yet - part of core, than as a gadget? Just a matter of someone to do the work?
