That's correct. I didn't know this API existed before (the Totem plugin
doesn't deal with categories at all), but I'll add support for it to
libgdata in time for the 0.7 release. I've filed a bug where you can see
the progress[1].

For the moment, though, you'll have to continue to parse categories.cat
yourself, since it'll be a while until libgdata 0.7's out, and currently
only version 0.6.4 is on GNOME's external dependency list. 0.7 is going
to break API and ABI from 0.6.x.

Are there any other problems so far?

Thanks a lot,
Philip
