It is not such definitely clear for me. Having all ports written in
the same scripting language grouped into some virtual category does
have advantages. For example, this could help to indentify extension
modules available.
After all, we put some things into x11 category just because they are
using x11 protocol (for example xterm, which essentually is a terminal
emulator, and as such belongs to sysutils or misc) but nobody disagre
with this.
Maybe it is better to introduce some more fine-grained language specific
virtual categories, i.e. {p5, py, ruby}-apps, {p5, py, ruby}-modules and
so on.
