Comment:

 Just changing it in the menu won't help here.

 As if I still have the manage_categories cap then I can go to the page by
 url and change things there as that checks that cap.

 Moving to 2.9 for now.

 We need to decide if we can have per-taxonomy caps to provide better
 flexibility here.
