Good point, that's even better! Then you can just tag your favourite brushes 
and leave the corresponding tag in the search field for fast filtering.

Maybe tags instead of categories?  Fonts will occur in many categories
(heavy, bold, antique, cursive, festive, etc.) so while each font could
occur multiple times, in different categories, an interface which used
tags rather than categories would make it easier to find "heavy,
antique, cursive" fonts for example.
