trees?

xod's idea about the computer-specific list of words got me
thinking... I have on my bookshelf one of the coolest books ever
created: Stephen Glazier's "Word Menu". It's like a dictionary, but
grouped by subject, much like yahoo is for websites.

(see http://www.randomhouse.com/catalog/display.cgi?isbn=0345414411 )

Anyway, I want to start reindexing the lojban dictionary this way.
I don't know what to call it though!
  
some gismu look promising:

   liste (list)
   girzu (group)
   jutsi (species/relationship between two layers of hierarchy)
   lanzu (family/clan)


so:

   valjut ? 
   valsi liste ?
   valsi lanzu ?

I also thought about tricu, which is a "tree".. but after reading
the comment in the grammar about "social buterflies" always being
actual insects in lojban, I'd guess a {valsi tricu} would be a
one of those trees that someone carved their name in...

Any thoughts?


Cheers,

- Michal
