Yes, pretty much the entire world standardized on S63. Incidentally (to touch on a point made previously), due to the IHO contract requirements open sourcing ENC application that supports S63 is not really legally possible.
We support cell updates automatically (though better support is needed and planned, as was proven by a recent user issue where outdated updates were found in a more recent cell directory). Catalog files are currently ignored for a number of technical reasons (as a matter of personal opinion, I think they have both benefits and drawbacks). That said, I was under impression that catalogs essentially list cells that are included in a given bundle.
