WAI-ARIA has a number of menu-related roles and properties [1]. Newer
browsers, including IE 8, offer reasonably good levels of support, as
do newer versions of some assistive technologies.

There's a good video by Todd Kloots of the YUI team demonstrating the
use of ARIA to enhance accessibility of a drop-down menu: I'll link to
the copy on Eric Miraglia's blog [2], as that includes a transcript.
