As you may expect, I would like to retain the category.
I see use of this item regularily, but not in programs.
But in webforms and in normal text.

I am travelling now, and they ask me a number of times on this,
eg. for the flights and at the hotel.
So IMHO it is a category that is needed, and it is good
that is is supported in glibc, and that we have data
for it in many places.

Best regards
Keld
