Ah. I don't use the 5 pane browser, so I never noticed. I think the 
problem here is the conventions enforced (or allowed?) by the 
PackageInfo category logic.

I'll look into it further over coffee.

[later]

The problem is with (my usage of) PackageInfo>>categoryName:

categoryName
 	|category|
 	category _ self class category.
 	^ (category endsWith: '-Info')
 		ifTrue: [category copyUpToLast: $-]
 		ifFalse: [category]

I just followed Avi's lead with naming categories (and his packages 
suffer from the same problem). There is no need to have a separate 
-Info category for SARBuilder; just move SARBuilderInfo into the 
SARBuilder category. I'll fix this in my packages on SqueakMap.

Thanks for pointing this out.
