Ted, I don't think this has anything to do with D2W,
The navigation in the current template is based on ERXNavigation. Which is a complex beast with tons of options. Take a look at the code if you want to figure it out. There are multiple ways of handling conditional nav tabs. However, D2W != ERXNavigation you are free to implement your own navigation in anyway you wish. If you want your nav to be data driven, write a component to do that and use that in your MenuHeader instead.
