CATEGORIES property with wrong separation. Horde internally uses
categories as tags (or vice versa).
RFC is postulating for CATEGORIES property value: "One or more text
values separated by a COMMA character"
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6350#section-6.7.1
Horde separates by a comma and a space character.
This misbeavior is coming from function synchronizeTags(array $tags)
in turba/lib/Object.php
...
$this->setValue('__tags', implode(', ', $tags));
...

Some CardDAV clients , for example Thunderbird plugin CardBook, adding
the additional space char to the name of the category . As CardBook is
using categories for grouping cards, this leads to lots of confusion.
Looking forward to seeing this fixed.
