Description
From Quarto office hours:
In listings, it is easy to misspell categories or apply inconsistent capitalisation, such as mixing lower case, upper case, or other variations. This issue becomes particularly common when multiple contributors are involved.
Introducing a mechanism to standardise and/or validate categories against a reference file (perhaps in YAML format) would be highly beneficial.
