Update categories list to clean up

This issue is a: [ ] Bug Report [x] Enhancement suggestion [ ] Feature request

In deploying a new cluster, I noticed that there's Ghost, Wordpress and the like in the "Management" category of the Marketplace.

Would it be better to have a more defined category of "management" (as in managing your cluster) and add a category/categories for CMSes and the like such as "content"? I thought I'd open up an issue here to allow for discussion between all potential users. If the number of categories total is an issue, I'd suggest moving some of the more cluster management-oriented apps (Rancher, Kubenav, Dashboard) to "monitoring" and renaming the management category.

For discussion, my suggested category listing, assuming adding new categories is ok, is:

  • Storage
  • Database
  • Management
  • Monitoring
  • CI/CD
  • Architecture
  • Security
  • Content (new)

As per initial discussion with @andyjeffries we concluded that once there are more than a couple of apps that do not fit in any existing category then this can be done. We can discuss this again on the categories.

@saiyam1814 do I read that right as "we'll give it a few more months and see what our list of apps is at the time"?
