Looks like I might have been right; notice how when you mouse over the
top-level items, the ENTIRE item is a link, but when you mouse over
the second-level item, there is padding and a border OUTSIDE the link.
This means that the mouse (if moved too slowly) will not be over ANY
link for a few pixels. This allows the menu to close or collapse. Try
playing with the following line in the CSS (the default value is 1.8):


DIV#div-editNav ul li ul { top:1.5em; }
