Description:

Extension point to register non-editable categories for the visualisation view.
The view holds and visualises items for visualisation manipulations like currently filters and table layouts.
These items can be managed by sorting them below categories, which forms a tree structure.
The user can add change and remove categories while runtime himself, or there may be categories which are fixed and cannot be changed. Such categories are registered here.
