Any part can only have one category.
The complete text of the !CATEGORY statement takes precedence. If there is no
!CATEGORY line, the first word (ignoring any initial ~ or _) of the decription
should be used as the category.
A !CATEGORY line that merely duplicates the first word of the description is
removed prior to official release.
All six official parts whose descriptions start "Minifig Accessory", should have
"Accessory" removed from the description, and two (53454 and 30035) should have
!CATEGORY statements added.
I'll recycle these through the Parts Tracker and fix the descriptions of the 21
unofficial parts.
Thanks for pointing this out.
