Indeed, use this object so that we don't have to reinvent the wheel, but use other things that do fantastic and leading edge stuff.  This will help keep my products current ion the eye of my clients.

Much more flexible than a complex grid object, since each row doesn't need to be the same height.  The mailto link behavior comes along for free with the proper markup, and those copy/edit/delete buttons only appear when you hover over their context space.  An add button appears when you hover over the categories.
