Thanks, @SergeyBiryukov .

I searched before opening my ticket but didn't come across this one.

This ticket is 12 years old 😅

I hope it will be picked up soon.

This is one of those things which not many people notice, but that can make a significant SEO impact I believe.

Also, the ticket mentions the general term "category". I hope it will be designed for all taxonomies. In my case, WooCommerce attribute terms.

Thanks for your work!
