[TYPO3-english] Bug in TMENU with HMENU special=directory?

AFAIK it's just vice versa: The mountpoint doesn't complete anything and the
rootline is missing due to the fact that the pages are not located within
the same page tree.
With no rootline available at all, the automatic expansion of sublevels
won't work, because it is using "entryLevel" internally.
This is necessary to change the default behaviour of "special" HMENU types,
that are usually not supporting automatic expansion at all, and it will work
for "directory" only.
