i think this is true, but the shine is not the most important thing. 
this could be improved by changing the css. but rather the 
functionality. e.g. ajax menu etc.
but for now i think simple simple menu with a better handling than the 
current would be good.

BTW
i think we should consider to implement the menu into a resource-type. 
this way it would be easy to replace it by another menu (resource-type)

WDOT?
