Hi, I have created a new extension called SelectCategoryTagCloud. It displays categories as a tag cloud on the edit page for users to select and unselect categories. It also has an AJAX based suggest feature to suggest existing categories to the user when keying in the name for a category.
It's available on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SelectCategoryTagCloud.
The code is heavily based on two other extensions (SelectCategory and WikiCategoryTagCloud). It needs some cleaning up and streamlining of the configuration. But it should be fully functional.
Anyone have a suggestion where to maintain the source code to handle bugfixes and future releases?
Cheers, Andi

We're doing a Summer special - half price Subversion accounts! Contact Brion Vibber and ask nicely. ;)
