It's worth noting that ALL of the functionality related to adding 
categories on the Write page is Ajax-based, and requires not only 
javascript support, but sort-of dedicated scripts to perform the 
server-side operations for adding the category.

Just the javascript code for adding categories is about 180 lines by 
itself, which is more lines of code than, for example, all of 
wp-comments-post.php, which is only 63 lines long and makes it possible 
to submit a comment.

So start coding...
