It's possible to add a stub category without adding a stub template.
Perhaps this would be a suitable compromise between those who need the
categories to be there and those who don't want multiple "this is a
stub..." notices on one article? Compare
<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ambrosius_Stub&oldid=27617688>
with <http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ambrosius_Stub&oldid=27615177>,
for example.
