Unit Production Assistant should be categorized under Location Management

The Unit Production Assistant position is actually part of the Locations department on a film, but IMDB currently has it categorized as Miscellaneous Crew. Now that IMDB has added a Locations Management category it would be more appropriate to move the Unit Production Assistant category under Locati

Why no Grip Department category

Does anybody else find it strange that there is no classification for the Grip Department in the crew listing on a Film or TV Show? The Grips are found in a category of Camera and Electric.

Other Crew section of credits actually split into departments

more departments to better cover video games

Set Decoration as its own category

We, as Set Decorators, and those who work with us in our (own unique) department, would like to be separate from the Art Department. The Set Decorator, as a department head, makes his or her own hiring decisions and our crew members should be grouped with us, please.
