That's a start. You don't like setting up a registration page instead? That 
way you can setup a campaign query that automatically updates the campaigns 
they register with in the profile or user form. I think the pages should 
contain the propeties, while the other pages the queries.

I think the query will examine category subpages when looking for properties, 
may also apply to other namespaces.

A worthwhile tradeoff?

btw, I there is a Page/Subpages template which simulates the subpages 
function. However, it must be present in both the parent and subpages to 
work.
