Use the UI plugin as your model.  I am not sure what that <category> 
section is, that could be causing problems?  Also your example would only 
show up when adding a property to a folder. 

Here is an example boolean property from the UI plugin:

<svnPropertyTypes
      type="Boolean"
      fileOrFolder="folder"
      allowRecurse = "false"
      name="bugtraq:number">
      <description>
bugtraq:number
Set to &quot;true&quot; if your issue tracking system has issues which can 
only be numbers.
      </description>
</svnPropertyTypes>
