The category names tend to be too long to fit reasonably in there -
the space isn't wide enough. I'm not entirely convinced it's a problem
though - there are no nested categories and the list is only ever a
click away.

It's also not an entirely straightforward change to display it on all
pages, but that of course is a smop.
