cat urlname warning when creating new blog

The problem is that when you create a blog it has to create a category and a unique cat_urlname, so it does, but it always gives an error-type message saying it created the new url_catname. So really the problem is that we say "Warning" when routine normal stuff happens. I'll commit a branch that solves this problem in a little while. Basically during cat creation for a new blog it goes and fetches the next available iteration of 'main-NN' then sets that, so no message is provided during db_commit().

Well, technically the error message is correct: The url title got changed from "main" to "main-NN", but I see why that could be inconvenient for the user. Perhaps pre-filling the input field with the next available "main-NN" would be a better solution?

Also, I *think* your solution will suppress the error message completely, even if it would be valid (e. g. when the user entered some custom url name which then had to be changed).

Test it. I did, it doesn't.

Anyway "pre-filling" is what I did except there is no visible field for the user to even try to pre-fill something. Upon blog creation it makes a category named "Uncategorized" (which is a kinda funny name for a category eh?) then tries to set it's urlname to 'main' which of course only works once, so it throws an error after the first. The solution exists between setting the name and the urlname, so when it checks the urlname it finds an acceptable value.

But seriously: testing beats looking.

That's my fault, sorry. I only saw there's a form and thought it had a category name input. Stupid me.

Yep. Works flawlessly, will merge ASAP.
