I've found that installing a category IU using the director does
pretty much what you'd expect. But it looks to me like it's a bug
rather than a feature that this works; when you click on a category in
the UI, the category's IU is not installed, only its children. When
you install a category using the director, the category IU is
installed.
IMO it would be helpful if the director let you install a category,
in the same way as the UI. Whether that means both install the
category IU or neither does, I don't know.
It may not be helpful with the categories presented by the eclipse.org
update sites, but it's helpful with the categories we present in our
product.
