Comment (by ianatkins):

 Sorry for late comment, but why does the flyout rely on a Javascript
 toggle class.

 The experience is much richer by using the css :hover class to show the
 sub menus.
 Try moving your mouse over several menus, you'll sometimes catch them
 overlapping
 or being sluggish. Try the same with Javascript disabled, which is using
 just the CSS :hover, and
 the result is much nicer.
