Three things: Firstly, that sounds like "Mystery Meat navigation" to me http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/mysterymeatnavigation.html - for example, I'd never noticed the Savannah pop-out menus before and I'm a member of a few projects there. There's nothing to indicate those submenus exist before they pop-out. Secondly, GNUstep menus don't pop-out on hover, for good reason IMO. One alternative is to make it look like GNUstep menus, with arrows and so on, but when I trialled a design which looked/felt like the GNUstep menu, it was pretty heavily flamed, so I doubt using pop-out menus would be popular. Finally, Savannah's menus don't use Javascript and nor should ours. But this is possible with CSS only (maybe with a little JS fix for IE) if you want to do it. I could be wrong, of course, but be cautious if you go that way.
