Gotta agree. Try to talk to the boss and see if you can find out why he/she's so insistent that that element be included in the top nav. Two things will probably happen: 1. You get an insight to the boss and how he/she thinks, which could smooth out the approval process down the road. 2. You'll be perceived as someone who cares about listening to everyone's opinion because you've taken the time to ask.
In the end you'll probably still have to put that element there, but at least you'll have a better understanding as to why it's there--beyond the boss's demand.
