That would be something like this... (not sure if you can next [item-field 
category] inside [area], but you'll get the idea):

<A HREF="[area index]">Home</A> &gt;&gt; <A HREF="[area 
scan/sf=category/se=[item-field category]]">[item-field category]</A> 
&gt;&gt; [item-field description]

If you wanted a full-featured version, you could throw in some conditionals 
and roll it into a globalsub to use it in templates.
