What you're missing is "do it all with CSS".
Go google for things like "Suckerfish menu" done entirely in CSS.
I did this for one client - very nice it was.
Just as you describe.
They decided they didn't want it after all :-(
It uses three levels of nested <ul> ... </ul> and the menu items are
each <li>...</li>
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li><h2>Actions </h2>
<ul>
<li> Action 1 </li>
<li> Action 2 </li>
<li> <h2>Nested Actions</h2>
<ul>
<li> Nested Action1 </li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>

The classic Suckerfish

used a bit of javascript to get around IE problems, but later versions
used pure CSS.

Here's the three (and four, vertical and horizontal) level illustrated

albeit with some javascript
But see

Or here's a version that deals with an indefinite number of levels by
using some javascript magic
