I found some issues related to the admin UI for managing catalog categories.
I added all of them in a single issue. (I already "spammed" enough this repo).

Issue 1
The inactive categories are not grey-ed out in the tree. So there is no difference between the active categories and inactive ones.

Issue 2
Deleting a category right after creating it actually deletes the parent category. Here is how you can reproduce it.

  1. Add a child category to one of the existing categories (will call it "parent")

  2. Immediately after creating the category, you realize you created it wrongly and delete it.

  3. Click on Delete category.

  4. The parent category is deleted (along with the one I actually wanted to delete).

    It even gets worse. Let's say I have one category. Will call it again "parent". and I want to create the following tree structure all in one process. I mean as soon as I add one child category I add a child to that child.


      parent - (already existing)  
         |-- child level 1 - I'm creating this one  
                    |-- child level 2 - Created imediately after child level 1  
                                 |-- child level 3 - Created imediately after child level 2  

And now I want to delete "child level 3". What actually happens, is "parent" gets deleted with all the child categories.
The issue does not reproduce if I reload the page after each "add" action.

Issue 3
After adding a child category the title section of the page still has the parent category value.
Before I took the screenshot below I did this:
1. Clicked on "Household Items" category
2. Clicked "Add subcategory"
3. Created the "Child Category" category.
4. Save.
But if I scroll down on the page until the floating header appears, in the floating header I see the corect category title.
difference

Issue 4
When moving a category in the tree, there is no loader overlay displayed. I think this can lead to problems if the user does any actions until the move process is finished

Issue 5
I created a bunch of categories as children of the root catalog category. then added one as a child for an other until I got to have the biggest level as 10.
When clicking on the menu Products->Categories I don't have the option to expand categories with the level 6 or higher. I only see the categories with level higher than 6 if I select for edit one of the level 6 categories.

This is what it appears after I click Products->Categories and Expand all or after manually expanding all I can expand
manual

This is my full category tree. I get it only after I click in the tree above on the categories with big level number: (In the case above Hoodies then 'Child Category' then 'Downloadable')
