Guess not. You can probably just fork and start committing. BTW I've pushed up the latest commits to the demo site ( http://mezzanine.jupo.org/admin/ user/pass: demo/demo), so you can login to its admin and see the current state of the new menu plus other visual tweaks - so if anyone who has a moment to try out their particular browser (eg I've no idea how this renders in IE) and provide any feedback that'd be great!
