Enhancement: Categories

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Adding a category field to a secret and dividing the main secrets list into 
categories would be a useful addition.
Currently I insert a keyword (eg "Website_www.android.com", 
"Website_code.google.com",etc) in the secrets name to divide them in the main 
list but this is a bit cluttering, having them in categories would give a 
better overview.
Probably the easiest way to implement would be to add a categories field 
(user-defined) and then first sort the secrets on categories (preferably in 
user-defined order) and then inside each category sort alphabetically.

Hi wvanbeelen,

I am still thinking about the best way to implement "categories", and the 
implementation will likely be much closer to labels in gmail that what you 
describe.

In the meantime, I think you can better achieve what you are doing right using 
the following method:

- leave the description as simply the website, such "www.android.com" or 
"code.google.com"
- in the Notes fields for both secrets, enter the word "website"

Then to see only the secrets that are "websites", use Full-text search by 
typing ".website" (don't type the double quotes, but *do* type the dot) when 
viewing your list of secrets.  For a full description of "Filtering and 
Full-text Searching", see the section with the same name on the home page at 
http://code.google.com/p/secrets-for-android/.

However, if your device is not a Nexus One or does not have a hardware 
keyboard, using Filtering and Full-text Searching is cumbersome.  This is 
already logged as issue
