[TYPO3-hci] Quick Question: Pull-down menu library?

>> As sebastian suggests we can usability test both.

you can test usability in
http://t3test.xetpoint.com/typo3/

the problem is that swiching mode can be done only by the admin
and I don't like to give full admin right for many people

i tested last time usability with :hover.
tabbed menu with hover works quite ok if the height of frame
is big enough. I tested with 32 pixel total height - easy to use.

onclick works ok with less than 20 pixel height.

but if you want to use DHTML-dropdown you *must* redesing the entire
BE interface. Using topmenu as replacement of 'Icons on top frame'
you don't need to do that. The existing framesystem doen't have 
possibility to create well working DHML-menu, which overlap frames.
It is just wasting of time trying to try. It will not succeed.
