I’m interested in making watching categories a more prominent option for users.

- I realize I can style the notification button on a category, but it would remain just a small, somewhat obscure icon. I haven’t been able to figure out how to make a more obvious target.

- Is it possible to add a notification button for each category on the `/categories` page? That would also serve as an overview of what the user is tracking.

- Finally, is it possible to make a user watch the first post of a category?

Any help for accomplishing the above, or other suggestions for making it easier for people to manage their category notifications, would be much appreciated!
