You have struck a chord with numbers in the path, reminds me of the pre-Xorg days with /usr/X11R6, not sure what I disliked more, the capital letters or the numbers! I hereby relent, and yield to the logic of the arguments placed before me, I now agree that using internationalization for the category name is a better idea.
