This was the most important sentence: the correct wrapping.

indeed this is a normal menu, it only should show you a clean wrapping in 
a normal menu. It is done with 'wrap' and 'wrapItemAndSub'.
If you just try to solve it with only one kind of wrap you can't solve 
the puzzle.

you might use the same two wrappings also for menus with 
'special=rootline' 
maybe you have to use other wraps. look in TSRef for a list of all 
available wraps!

this is just a stub.

TYPO3 configuring by using typoscript is unusual for programmers and a 
lot of problems seem to have no solution, but I state you: these are the 
parts where you can learn typoscript - and it is worth the effort.
