1) We don't have a category hierarchy, the last category is used for the 
color. So it will happen that two events from the same resource will still 
have different colors (and furthermore, category colors are used for the 
background, resource colors are used for the frame of the event, so there is 
a difference between them).
2) If we add a category for each resource, and you copy an event to a 
different resource, how will that category ever be unset (should it be 
removed at all?)
3) If we use the name of the resource as category, the users will start 
thinking that they can change the resource of the event by simply setting the 
category. => Oops. That's more confusing than helpful.
