So why are we still naming pages "Category Whatever" and "Locale Something"?

If I understand this right, what you're asking for is that eg if a page is put into category Fred and locale Barney, then on viewing the page it should offer auto-generated links not to 'Category Fred' and 'Locale Barney' but to 'Fred' and 'Barney'. If so, then there are some internals that will need tidying up but the technical changes should be trivial. As Dave points out, it's the nontechnical aspects that need thought.
And as I said to Nick earlier, the one thing that would speed up development no end is for someone to get hold of a working ibook keyboard for me. Even typing this mail has been painful. Programming when your only access to the characters oujlOUJL79&(>. is via copy and paste is practically impossible.
