Just a FYI, on the restrict param.  When you pass the paramter, pre-prend
the current cateogory id with the application Id.  Ie:

- From c=1.4.5.6, user selects "BIND" which relates to ID# 11.  You would
then pass: restrict=1.4.5.6.11

If you only pass 11, you'll get multiple hits, since 11 shows up in
1.4.5.6 and 1.3.6.  (You get the idea)
