This seems like a nice idea, and could lead on to having a section that
can be opened and closed for each of these categories. However, I
have some comments on the implementation:

I'm worried about the number of external git invocations we're
potentially doing here, and how long that would take when you have a
lot of heads. Can we cache the results perhaps? Or is there a way to
do a single git command and get a list of tracking branches with their
remotes etc.?
Also, the default for lsearch is glob-style matching. It's unlikely
that ref names would have any of *?[\ in them, but AFAIK it's not
impossible. You probably want -exact in there.
Further, the kind of thing you are using lsearch for can often be done
more efficiently using an array (which becomes essentially a hash
table underneath).
