Duy's modified generate-cmdlist.sh does actually output an array of
strings for these, but the (generated) array is commented out in this
RFC. I suppose the reason it's not presently used is because the array
looks like this:
static const char *cmd_categories[] = {
"ancillaryinterrogators",
"ancillarymanipulators",
"foreignscminterface",
"mainporcelain",
"plumbinginterrogators",
"plumbingmanipulators",
"purehelpers",
"synchelpers",
"synchingrepositories",
NULL
};
which doesn't give quite the human-friendly output he'd like. The
series is RFC, after all.
A possible approach to fix it would be to add a new "### categories"
section to command-list.txt which associates those category tags
("ancillaryinterrogators") with human-readable counterparts
("Ancillary interrogators").
