The approach will be:
Category indizes will never be reused, and the entries automatically
delete all references to non-existent (that is, deleted) categories.
This way you save to run through all entries to remove the references.
Another approach would be to use hash values for the indizes, I am still
thinking about that.

Ahm actually I wanted to explain the approach. The interface will mainly
provide what you listed. You are right, the section should not be made
public. The idea was not to hide it to allow people to use the raw data
too (for any reason this might be necessary), but maybe this is a bad
idea. Will move it to protected.

I am wrong.
