Description

In the Extension Manger, I would like to assign customized categories to extensions (probably only the ones I've downloaded)

For me, what I would use this for is to create categories for a specific feature where there are multiple extensions that fill a requirement, then each of those extensions would be assigned that 'feature category'.

I have sites where I won't be managing them for the most part, just setting them up. However, I don't want to install every extension under the sun because that slows things down (ever so slightly, but noticeably) and makes the back end a little over whelming. I would rather have someone ask for a feature, say flash, and me give instructions to choose one of the extensions in the 'flash content type' category, instead of me installing all of them.

This would also allow me, personally, to scan through the extensions for the one I need faster, thus getting my work done sooner, so I can move on to the next site I administer.
