[TYPO3-hci] My 4.1 proposal - again

[Kasper Skårhøj]

Thanks Susanne.

So you basic proposal is to wrap items in <ul><li> instead of <div>.

I thought about that too. Then realized we should go for something  
more flexible, namely the diff. Who says that dropdowns represent a  
list anyway? Could be anything. In default examples we need space for  
a check-icon (Ã), an item icon, the title and an arrow to the right.  
Could that be made with a list? If so, how?

Regardless of which path I choose to follow for my own favourite menu  
it will be possible for others to make it their way.
