After using bacula a lot today to do cleanup of some testing I did,  
I've found that ALL Pools *always* show up everywhere.  No matter  
what command you use, or what catalog you are in.

In there any way to associate pools with catalogs, such that pools  
don't show up in the list if they have no media in that catalog?  Or  
am I thinking about Pools and Catalogs all wrong?
