It would be nice to allow the creation of user categories from some CCK fields:

1) Select the CCK field
2) Select the required value of that field
3) Creation of the list, with the users that satisfy the CCK requirement

I have plans on doing stuff like this. Please see http://drupal.org/node/136208 and http://drupal.org/node/144343. However, it's still 'out there' as I've got a few things on my plate I'm trying to complete, first. Also, I'm not doing anything more than security fixes w/the 5.x-1.x branch as that was created and maintained by the original author.

Maybe I could help creating that feature...

I think the idea would be something like:

1) Select the CCK field from a list that shows every CCK field available.
2) Select the value of that field to make the filter (if some default values are into the database, or only some values are accepted by the field, create a list with them).
3) Show the users that are into that selection.
4) Name the selection created, and store it.

Thanks to ygerasimov, the 7.x-1.x version of Mass Contact now utilizes the Chaos tools suite (ctools) plugin system. I will reexamine this and realted issues with that plugin system in mind to determine whether to create a plugin for this request or not.
