Excellent :0)
Would something like this be able to fetch the current category as well?

For current category you could query the jos_categories table directly to get what you need:

Code:

if (JRequest::getVar('option')=='com_flexicontent' && JRequest::getVar('view')=='category' ){
	$catid= JRequest::get('cid');
	$query = "SELECT * FROM #__categories WHERE id = '$cid'";
	$db->setQuery($query);
	$catdata = $db->loadObjectList();
	if($db->getErrorNum()) {
		echo $db->getErrorMsg();
	} else {
		echo "Category Title: ". $catdata->title;
		echo "Category Description: ". $catdata->description;
		// etc
		// etc
	}
}
