 We run a blog that deals with programming languages. Today we were
 creating a post concerning the C programming language and attempted to
 create a new category for it, called "C" (just one character). This
 angered WordPress; it appeared to create a superfluous "Uncategorized"
 category, but it wound up not actually creating any categories for the
 post.

 I've attached a screenie so you can see what this looks like after I
 attempt to create the category.

 If it's for some reason forbidden to create categories comprised of a
 single character, maybe a validation error message of some kind would be
 in order?
