I'd say to use "Additional" instead of "Advanced" and put there some
stuff like separators etc which are not widely used, but neither are
'advanced'.

IMHO "Obsolete" should remain separate and only contain deprecated
widgets.

About "Dialogs", do you plan to put also the normal dialog container
there? I think it should stay in base together with GtkWindow and thus,
to make things clearer, I'd label the catalog "Standard Dialogs" or
something like that.
