This is not a feature at present, but there is no real reason why this is not already the case and it is a trivial change to the code to make it possible. Do you wish me to make this the case in the final version of 2.2.8, or do you want instructions on how to patch the code?

Yes: if you give a usergroup *can_add_category* permission but not *can_edit_category* permission, then users in that group can always edit categories they add themselves, but no others.
