I've been playing around with mirrors for a little while now and I've got a quick question. Is there anyway to extract the category hierarchy easily besides running through all the slots and pieceing the information together that way? I've tried poking through the outliner code and I can't seem to find the part where it creates the initial hierarchy.

I think the answer is no. Look in traits slotsOutliner, there is a method called "categories" in the "category iterating" category. You can see ther that the outliner just uses an iteration over all slots. As near as I can tell this method is at the center of haw the outliner determines categories.

Good luck,
