I would like to see the categories fieldset utilized for the rss.xml report. This would help those who are trying to monitor multiple reports for projects using the FeedAPI module to automatically categorize the data. A category for all field values is appropriate.

Sample categories fieldset based on this issues current values:

<item>
  ...
  <categories>
    <category>
      project_issue
    </category>
    <category>
      6.x-1.x-dev
    </category>
    <category>
      Miscellaneous
    </category>
    <category>
      feature request
    </category>
    <category>
      normal
    </category>
    <category>
      active
    </category>
  </categories>
</item>

I suppose the <categories></categories> tags aren't part of RSS but multiple <category></category> tags are.

I don't understand what you're asking for. Which "rss.xml report" are you talking about? You mean the RSS feeds of various issue queues?

Yes, I'm talking about the result of http://drupal.org/project/issues/rss/drupal?text=&status=13&priorities=A...

Having the issue control values listed as a separate category in the result will help when reading the details of the rss.

Then you need to write a patch that implements project_issue_nodeapi() for $op == 'rss item' and does whatever you want. Assuming the code is good and it works, I'd be willing to commit it.

Title: rss feed item categories fieldset » Add issue metadata (category, status, priority, etc) to issue node rss feed items

Better title so people can tell WTF this is actually about. ;)
