Absolutely.

I'm not sure why it was suggested to be marked `obsolete' anyway --
`category' is a general abstraction mechanism for text properties
(and overlays), not an ad-hoc display-related property.  Removing it
would reduce functionality, and making it not work for faces would
make them an annoying special case, which is obviously something to
avoid if possible.
