When I look at one category’s settings and use the button in the sidebar to create a new category, once I select the “security” tab, I see the settings of the category again instead of being able to configure my new category.

Thanks @Moin - will be fixed by

Two issues addressed:
1. Require icon selection when style type is "icon" - p… reviously the new category interface allowed creating categories without an icon, unlike the old interface which required one.

2. Reset security settings when navigating from edit to new category - the categoryVisibilityState was being reused across different categories, causing the security tab to show the previous category's settings.

After editing a category and then attempting to create a new one, sometimes you'… d end up back to the one you were editing when clicking tabs in the navigation. This resets the data to avoid the issue.
