Troy,
That sounds like a good solution, although I can imagine some on the project
team resisting what might appear to be a redundant element. So I'm curious
what you use as the name of that first link. For example, if the Menu Title
is "Books", would the first entry on the menu be "Books" (repeated), or
perhaps "Books Main Page"?
