 It is pretty common these days for themes to use custom nav menus. If a
 lot of pages have been published that haven't been organized into parent
 /sub-pages then the wp_nav_menu fallback rendering can look pretty hideous
 when switching themes.

 This is because the fallback menu function ALWAYS seems to be invoked
 (whether any theme locations/nav menus exist or not).

 It would be better when switching themes to assign default nav menus to
 theme locations. If no theme locations and/or nav menus exist then use the
 fallback menu function as currently implemented.
