ux bug in [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true), it appears the category heading background is transparent for any queries that have category results. the other headings are solid as normal but when category is a heading, the results scroll over the heading text and grey background:

another query with category:

i haven’t seen any other headings with transparent backgrounds yet.

seeing this in windows chrome desktop, and safari iOS desktop and mobile views. doesn’t matter what theme i use.  
repro:

1. go to [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) plugin
2. run any query that returns the topic category and enough results to scroll
3. scroll down

incidentally i did have a quick look at the dev tool console but there wasn’t anything obvious that i saw was causing it. very odd because it seems to me all those headers have the same properties.

I pushed & merged a fix for this in the component. It should update on the next deploy of sites.
