Comment(by scribu):

 Replying to [comment:1 filosofo]:
 > That's an interesting approach, but I think you're going to eat up all
 the memory with a decent number of categories.

 I don't think that's likely, since only two integer fields are retrieved:
 ID and parent.

 Besides, wp_list_categories() retrieves all the fields for all the
 categories and I haven't heard any memory limit issues about that.
