And I must mention that, although it is in some ways convenient to be able to
find pieces by theme, things get messy when themes are used in the hierarchy.
For example, consider the Castle section of Partsref, and these "Castle *"
parts.  There are parts that would make more sense to be found under
Minifig>Weapon> like Castle Sword[1] or Castle Pike[2]; there are Vehicle
Elments (wheels); there are Panels (castle walls); there's the Castle Goblet,
which has appeared in many Town sets. . .

You're absolutely right.  I keep planning on updating those parts.
Basically, the Castle, Space, and Town categories should go away.  Train
will stay, because there are many train-specific pieces.  Ditto for any
other theme-like categories.
