OK i would upgrade sometime in a day or two. But just a suggestion:

Say a root category has got 10 subcategories and it could be that only than 4 or 5 are populated with data (with all possibility that inital 4 or 5 are with no data). It would make this plugin really useful from what Pugdog had mentioned that the priority /ordering of the subcats listed on home page are most populated categories (if there are ones), DESC so that at least the Non Populated Categories just do no get listed on home page (ie if there are few sub-cats with data) and it's only sub-categories with content that are being displayed. This could also not irritate a user who just could be clicking on empty subcategories.

Thanks
