Not an ideal solution, in that I don't need to use sub-categories, so don't want to go creating them just so that I can have Featured Products displayed.

Which is what I am currently doing, and it works fine for the home page; it would just be nice if it worked for the category pages too.
To me, Featured Products are ones that you want to highlight from within the category. So, if a category has 10 products, you might want to highlight product1 and product3 which have been reciving attention in the media lately. You'd still want them in the list of products in the category as well (not moved to a sub-category), you just want to draw a bit more attention to them. This is why I don't think that Featured Products should be an either / or situation.
