Looking forward to this being on the official repo!
Thanks for the move
Actually, concerning the official repo (and as a Kodi Team Member, you may be able to answer
) as stated in to OP it uses a completely unofficial extension to the parent nodes index.xml file to manage rules applying to all nodes within. Is something so unofficial likely to be accepted onto the repo, or am I better looking at alternative ways to accomplish this?

Well in general we would always like things like this to use normal ways of interfacing with XBMC.
Martijn, is probably best to answer that question as he looks over the repo submissions.

Can i also do this for audio. I have custom nodes in my audio collection that i would like to browse in xbmc/kodi. Would like the custom node to be listed in the same page with genres, artists, and albums.

Kodi doesn't support custom audio nodes, so it can't be done.

No idea, sorry. Might be worth having a search of the feature suggestion forum and, if there isn't an existing request, making one.

Thanks to everyone whose tried the script. Beta 2 is now available - see the first post for details. Assuming no major issues arise, this will be it before pushing to the repo.

I think there is a problem with kodi 14.0 new version that uses new path for installation and appdata. I can't edit original categories (lbel, position etc etc) in that version and it doesn't read the rules i set (Even if it sets them well)

Any errors in the log?
Edit: Forget the log
OK, reproduced this on a VM - it looks like the xbmcvfs.exists (which checks whether the custom video nodes exist) is failing, so the script is re-copying the default nodes over the top. So, any changes that are made are being instantly overwritten by the default nodes. I remember seeing something about changes to file/directory handling on Windows having been committed in the last few days - it looks like this is either a direct or unintended consequence of that. I'll have a look to switching to Pythons OS functions.
Edit again: Switching to os.path.exists seems to have worked. Changes now on git. If you could test it and let me know if it works for you too

Thanks to everyone who helped to test this. It's now available on the Kodi repo.
