categories vs category heading...

Hmmm,
I uploaded a picture of a bus.
There is no category for buses so I put it under the category 'transportation'.
On my photo management page I noticed the category 'transportation' had not been selected.
I then tried a search choosing 'transportation' from the drop down box. Nothing happened as it does for most categories...

I am now assuming that 'transportation' is not actually a category in itself but in fact may be a title for categories which fall directly below it.

If I am not correct can someone explain what's going wrong here...
If I am correct, could we have a list of categories where an actual category which can be chosen looks different from a title plz?
