What you've done here is basically create a tag system with the ability to have tags relate to each other. Which is good and funky and I'd use it too, but... well, we could just create a seperate one rather than tearing down the existing categories. Duplicate the category code, change it a bit, implement a new namespace, fiddle around with the CSS, Bob's your uncle.
Sounds great :)
That or use semantic mediawiki and say [[died from::cancer]] in the article, but no one likes that idea for some reason.
This always struck me as like a dentist complaining no-one ever wants to replace all their teeth with undecayable plastic ones - it's so much better! But they all complain about the inconvenience... ;-)
But think of it from the dentist's point of view! :D I realize I'm in the minority on this, and appreciate that input. I lean towards tech solutions for most things, and am sure if everyone was like me wikipedia would be a much smaller crappier place. :) Incidentally that analogy is one of the funnier things I have read today :)
