If you really wanted a separate php page for each category, then you could always do that by building index.php pages, and just linking things to page.php for add, modify, search, etc.
Would the current template parser allow PHP tags to be passed through to the resultant index.php pages? I haven't tried it, but my understanding was that this did not work previously. I had hoped to not do a static build of an entire test directory (10k links), but maybe I'll delete a chunk of them and test it that way...
If we did link to page.php for certain items, would we be able to specify that it is to be used
only for those items? What I mean is that, if page.php is designed to handle the home page and all category pages, when someone clicks through to it for the search page, will it try to route them back through to itself when presenting a link to the category a search result is in?
One thing I considered after going to bed last night is that, with my comments above about using the PHP frontend to build category index.php pages, one area where it could not remain truly dynamic is changes in the actual category structure. However, that probably isn't an issue all that often. Page spanning within the categories could still be done as separate more.php pages, or the individual category index.php pages could be multi purpose and dynamically handle page spanning internally. Seems there are a few ways a dynamic/static system could work. :)
