It doesn't matter which items you're working on. I'd like to add one issue,
dragging with the mouse can only add categories, you can't remove one by
dragging the item to the None Categories group.
But once you have grouped by categories, you can easily select all of the
items of one category, right click, choose categorize, and then add and/or
remove categories. That won't affect categories, which are assigned to just
a few of the items.
