Agreed- "OS" would include disk ,cpu ,etc. "Environment" is for external monitors for things like, temp, water, fire, etc. Some sites use these things heavily.

One category I'd like to see is a place for user-created config files to go as examples. For example, sample bb-hosts files, hobbit-clients.cfg, hobbit-alerts.cfg, etc. I had a wee bit of struggling to get the behavior of some of the alerting rules right, for example.
As far as categories in general, I agree deadcat has too many.....
My $0.02:
Network Disk Email Databases HTTP Config Examples Environment Security
At least to start with- perhaps a few more. I think most items can be lumped in here somewhere.
How about "OS" - or System Health?? Your Disk category could be a subset of that. It would include stuff like the Sparc/Solaris temperature monitor from Deadcat. Or would that be part of Environment?
