   Is it possible to exclude a category by name rather than id?

   To exclude a category ID, I would say

   query_posts('cat=-3');

   And to post only a category, I would say

   query_posts($query_string . '&category_name=featured');

   Is there a way to use PHP to get a category name, and find the ID associated with it?
