Yes - I struggle with thier docs everyday, at first glance they look pretty good, but once you get into them..... 
Hmm, they have to provide a list of valid codes somewhere.
I have not been able to find one - the v1 soap wdsl is documented - but as we've seen not very useful to the "java friendly" v2 wsdl... I have a post in their forum, but there is almost no developer help there and most people are looking for solutions and are kinda light on the "help" part of participating in a forum.
But, thank you, you have proven that in fact this does work and all I need is some actual documentation.

OK - something odd has happened....check it out.
<cfscript>
mage_obj = CreateObject("webservice", "http://mage.bigblock.ca/api/v2_soap?wsdl");
mage_session = mage_obj.login('register','register');retcat = mage_obj.catalogCategoryTree(mage_session,'1','default');
retn = retcat.getName();
retc = retcat.getChildren();
</cfscript><cfdump var="#retcat#" />
<cfdump var="#retc#" />
<cfdump var="#retn#" />
is now returning an object with methods - as opposesd to a category list, as it's supposed to, .... [http://mage.bigblock.ca/index.cfm]
- more confused than ever
- had to guess at the "valid args" for catalogCatagoryTree
- still no docs anywhere
- I thought "ok" when retn returned the actual category name
- then retc returns the same object...
I thought I was winning this battle... argh!

It seems to be behaving correctly to me. Granted I know very little about the product. If you look at the wsdl it says getChildren returns an array, which it does:
<element name="children" type="typens:ArrayOfCatalogCategoryEntities"/>
If you loop through the array of objects, you will see the first child is not the same object.
<cfscript>
mage_obj = CreateObject("webservice", "http://mage.bigblock.ca/api/v2_soap?wsdl");
mage_session = mage_obj.login('register','register');
tree = mage_obj.catalogCategoryTree(mage_session,'1','default');
treeName = tree.getName();
treeChildren = tree.getChildren();
</cfscript>
<cfoutput>
<b>tree:</b><br/>
getCategory_Id() = #tree.getCategory_Id()# |
getName() = #tree.getName()# |
getLevel() = #tree.getLevel()# |
getParent_Id() = #tree.getParent_Id()# |
getPosition() = #tree.getPosition()# <br/>
<b>children:</b><br/>
<cfloop from="1" to="#arrayLen(treeChildren)#" index="i">
<cfset child = treeChildren />
getCategory_Id() = #child.getCategory_Id()# |
getName() = #child.getName()# |
getLevel() = #child.getLevel()# |
getParent_Id() = #child.getParent_Id()# |
getPosition() = #child.getPosition()# <br/>
</cfloop>
