ask that the case also be honored. It is what guarantees that anyone releasing
a wood door agrees that the short abbreviated form for this
``Category``/``SubCategory`` pair will be DOORWood.
This will allow any user of the system to know exactly where that sound
belongs. And using many of the scripts developed and being developed, most
common database programs can parse that out easily into the Category and
SubCategory fields, and also in some cases build a ``CategoryFull`` field by
looking up the ``CatID``, matching to the list, and then pasting the matched
fields together with a hyphen. So DOORWOod becomes DOORS-WOOD.
