How do I add categories

I'm talking programming again.

An earlier version of BaseCamp for Mac (I thought 3.3.2 but it may have been earlier) allowed the user to enter Categories - these were recorded in a .gpx file in the form:

<gpxx:Categories>
<gpxx:Category>Famous Iowans</gpxx:Category>
<gpxx:Category>Lived in the White House</gpxx:Category>
<gpxx:Category>Raised chickens</gpxx:Category>
</gpxx:Categories>

Both v3.3.2 and v4 have a greyed-out box headed Lists/Categories. How do I create a list and can it include categories as above?

If I create a .gpx file with categories included, import it into BaseCamp (either v3.3.2 or v4) and export it again, the categories code disappears.
