Another solution - although I haven't tried this yet - before searching nature, get the category and look in the stkeywords prop for any key that has an OID key. That represents a sub category. Do a get on those guys and repeat. When done, you should have a list of every subcat. Then just pass the original cat ID and that list to the find tag.
Actually, it would be easier, and quicker, to just get the hierarchy and use that to build you list of subcats. Hmmm, I think I'll build a custom tag for this today. ;)
