[pLog-svn] questions on blog categories and global article categories

[Oscar Renalias]

This is simple enough, but I can already see the questions in the
support forums coming... Many people will ask about how to show
different groups of articles in the front page depending on the
category to which they belong, or how to show the most active blogs
grouped by their category and so on... Perhaps I've already seen too
much in the forums, but these questions will definitely be there.

I seem to remember that one of these chinese blogging sites had a nice
summary page with all the articles grouped. It looked quite nice :)
But if we don't implement features like this, at least there should be
an easier way to modify the summary to make it work like that... Many
people seem to get scared at the idea of of using php code to modify
the look of the page.
