 Okay, maybe I'm missing something, but I noticed when you give
 {{{category_exists()}}} a category name, it creates a sanitized version of
 that name (i.e. what it's slug would be) and then sees if there are any
 categories that already have that slug. However, you can change the slugs
 for categories in the admin area to something completely different than
 the category name.

 Now is {{{category_exists()}}} really just used to see if a category slug
 exists? Or is it just checking in a bad method?
