 The reason it can be a bad idea is an overwhelming list. This is a symptom
 of the current UI, and maybe also a symptom of not having tags -- we will
 see.

 With a single catalog, with this UI, intuitively you would want:
 Created on post page -> always display in post catalog, not in blogroll if
 no links
 Created on blogroll page -> always display in blogroll, not in post page
 if no posts
 Created in category management -> always display in both
