 * Goal #1 ) Item should have only one logical place to exist in "Items" tree
 * Goal #2 ) Item groupings tree should aim to group a maximum of two attributes together. Searches for items with more than two different attributes in common can be done via Multi Category Search
 * Item groupings that DO group two attributes together should only be used when the sub attribute can only be applied to one category of the parent attribute (* verbage bad *)
 * Proficiency only applies to Items.Weapons, so Item groupings.Weapons by proficiency is allowed even though it groups by two attributes ( weapons and proficiency )
 * need to rename ambiguous titles ( like "simple" .. throwing sub cats like "dagger" are duplicated .. must fix )
 * *marks categories that do not exist in auction
 * injecting "base" to distinguish sub categories with no prefix ( .. axeblock ) from parent category not ideal
 * some categories in items by effect to be moved to items by damage effect ( backstabbing )
 * need to rename ambiguous titles ( like "simple" .. throwing sub cats like "dagger" are duplicate )
 * collectable type defined by DDO grouping when inserted in to collectable bag ( or other container used to store collectables .. like tome pages or sigil )
