 Of course. It does what it says, sometimes leaving 2 parents open,
 sometimes 3. The sliding effect makes it look nice, but usability-wise it
 prevents the user from seeing all submenus at once (even if some scrolling
 is involved), so when looking for a submenu, instead of preventing clicks,
 it forces the user to click a lot more to be able to compare the different
 sections.
