I'm talking about the column view obtained from the weekly agenda.
(i.e. do C-c a a, and then C-c C-x C-c in the resulting agenda buffer).

I like that the category is in the weekly agenda, and would like it to
appear in the column view as well.  The reason for this is that I am
using categories as Project titles, to provide context for TODO items.
For example, I could have a category "Trip plan" with a TODO item
"review costs".  Without the "Trip plan" category, "review costs" is
meaningless as it could be applicable to almost anything.

I forgot whose tutorial gave me this category-use idea, but it seemed
to be a good idea at the time.  Of course, org-mode is so powerful there
may be other ways of achieving the same goal.
