Downloaded .NZB through RSS gets downloaded but in the default category

I don't know if this is either
- a bug
- a feature request
- and/or as-designed :)

I have an RSS feed, which don't point to the downloaded files, but to a list of NZB files. I set the category of that feed to "TV".
When that feed downloads the NZB files I see that these files are 'Sent to the queue'. Which is correct, but it sends it to the queue with the default category, I think it needs to 'inherit' the category.

In addition to that (and in my opinion :) ), when SABnzbd+ downloads only NZB files through RSS or other "parent" NZB file it should just add them to the queue with inherited category and skip the creation of the output folder for just the NZB.

ps I use SABnzbd+ 0.5.4 - Windows Binaries

The NZB should inherit the category.
The folder creation is a necessary part of the post-processing.
Maybe the folder can be automatically removed afterward.

Well it doesn't inherit it here, so it's a bug? Or is it a setting or something which could be wrong?

Maybe: I'll look into it. It might take some time though.

Do you have any clue which settings might affect this behaviour? That way may I can get it to work?

So far I haven't found anything wrong with inheriting the category.
The only influence I can think of is that you also determine the category
from the group name. Do you have anything in your categories newzbin/group column
that contains a dot?
