I actually failed to mention that if I select the "Categories are based
on" field and save it before switching over to the external field the ui
for creating a ticket with those custom fields behaves as expected (in
that a field that is based on another will only show those fields with
the same category that it is based on). It is as if the ability exists,
but the interface for setting it prevents that.  That said, I'd
probably be playing with fire if I were to rely on it continuing to
work.

I'll check that out, thanks for the help.
