yes! A lot of expandable menus aren't too good for keyboard users. You
can end up tabbing through loads of links, sometimes not visible on
the screen, and sometimes you get top level links that don't actually
go anywhere, but are just there to expand a hidden menu - and
sometimes these just don't work.
