Totally agree, users except terms to be categories.
The real "new concept" in drupal compared to others systems is the Vocabulary. And after all, a vocabulary is a kind of 'classification root', so why not:
taxonomy.module -> classification.module vocabulary -> classification term -> category
My 2 cents :) -- Aymerick
That's again coming back to a very blog-centric view of taxonomy. Half the things I use taxonomy module for are not really "categories". If you enable free tagging, you're then talking about "tags", not really "categories". Category carries a lot of mental weight that is very limiting.

IMHO, we are not able to find an adequate wording that suits all possible use cases of taxonomy. I'd suggest to keep the current wording and improve the descriptions and documentation. sun
