[Feature Request] Quick view of category information in thumbnail and list view modes

[waz1500]

Would it be possible to add some sort of functionality where you could see at a glance particularly on the thumbnail/list view what manga is in what category without ever right-clicking it and checking to see:

1. has it even been added to a list?
2. what category is it in?

Just something where you could see all that information at a glance would be so useful I think. This would help those who are trying to manually add items to a static category in particular and not wasting time right clicking and checking that way.

I was thinking perhaps a switch to toggle on or off where you could see what manga have been assigned and have it overlay over the thumbnail. Maybe something like this?

I'm aware it's a little complicated but even having a "category" icon as an alternative would be useful. Similar to the "NEW" icon and the "Crown" icon that appear when reading manga. Some icon that represents, "oh this is already in a category".

I would personally use this feature to add items to my favourites list. So at a glance I could see what isn't in a category and what I've potentially missed adding to a static category and then use the new feature in #375 and go from there.

Do you think there would be a good use case for something like this in the future?

I do like this idea and think it's doable without too much effort -- I've been struggling a bit to figure out proper UI paradigms for Categories so any suggestions are certainly welcome. 😊

@waz1500 Any thoughts on #1129, whether it works for your use case?
