Brant, This would be a good place to start
http://www.toolmantim.com/farcry/ Dig around that code, and it'll create a nested UL navigation for you. We've done a different version here (well Tim Lucas has) that does something similar - but is a custom tag as opposed to a rule. (i don't really like using rules for navigation.). I'll submit it to the upcoming developers exchange at some stage, but it'll probably after Christmas.
