This failed miserably to render nicely on several browsers on several
platforms. I'm pretty sure I followed the instructions correctly.
And I disagree about restricting the menu. The whole point is to make it
easy to navigate from one part of the docs to another without having to
go up the tree.
I'm not sure about using third party JS libs that are not BSD licensed,
that's probably a non-starter, although MIT is probably fairly close, IIRC.
