Comment:

 Good approach to this is to get the menu act and be like dropdown (select)
 box, this way you will avoid centered menu and reduce so much unnecessary
 space.

 Take a look at [http://tinynav.viljamis.com/ TinyNav.js]

 and slightly modify active for current items and voila!


 {{{
 // Responsive Menu (TinyNav.js)
 jQuery(".menu").tinyNav({
     active: 'current_page_item', // Set the "active" class
     header: false // Show header instead of the active item
 });
 }}}

 I tried showing all by default, users didn't like it, after that it was
 nice and centered, still many support questions "why oh why" and after
 Theme incorporated TinyNav.js everyone liked it.

 And if you guys don't like that idea you can always use current setup and
 adjusted to be more like this [http://filamentgroup.com/examples/rwd-nav-
 patterns/ RWD Nav Patterns]

 P.S. Keeping main menu only is great idea.

 Thanks,
 Emil
