When I create a field, Category is empty. I change other options and then click 
OK. The "Sorry" dialog pops up 3 times (pop up, click OK, pop up, click OK, 
etc.) before Tellico crash.

Looks like Category is empty by default if one change some categories (but 
General) or/and add some custom fields.  But I can reproduce that case only on 
my collections. With newly created ones "Category" is not empty by default. 
Could this occur because I've edited the XML by hand (to change the default 
name of fields) ?
