A "perfect" solution would be brothercake's with an AJAX layer only
loading the content of the sub sections when you activate a main
section.

Or - here is an idea - make a basic navigation that gives _only what
makes sense in this section_ and *offer* the fancy dropdown menu as an
option!

Can we see an actual example of this :-) Better yet, forget the
example - I think your best advice might be to drop back 10 yards and
dispense with drop-down menus completely. My advice, of course, would
be different and I'd be glad to offer it - offlist only.
