[wp-hackers] do pages and posts make sense?

This seems fairly obvious to me, but perhaps otehr people have different 
schemes. For example,

http://www.elharo.com/blog/privacy/2006/05/17/virtual-account-numbers/

is a post in the privacy category.

http://www.elharo.com/blog/privacy/virtual-account-numbers/

would be a page in the privacy category.

Links to /blog/privacy/virtual-account-numbers/ could appear on other 
pages in the privacy category, but not other pages in other categories 
such as tech or birds or travel.

This would probably need to be themeable so different schemes could be 
implemented.

I'm not sure how easy that is to implement, but it doesn't seem hard to 
envision.
