[wp-hackers] changing the category base and then removing it all together and doing this back and forth

 Can I use the built-in category taxonomy as follows
 Media
Audio
Pictures
Videos
Articles
Apps
Audience
Beginners
Intermediate
Advanced
Featured
Main Headline
Slides
  Flagship
  Worth a look
  Not to miss

and then I have the following url options
 mysite.com/browseBy/media
mySite.com/browseBy/media/audio
 or
 mysite.com/media
mySite.com/media/audio
 Can I achieve these URLs by simply changing category base to "BrowseBy"
(for the first two URL example) and then some time later totally removing
the base ( for the last two URL examples).
 Are there any technical issues with such changes?
 Yes. I'm aware of the SEO implications of such changes but we are not at
launch phase. Once we launch, we will obviously stick to the launch state.
