 * keywords:  needs-patch => has-patch needs-unit-tests


Comment:

 In [attachment:35206.diff]:

 * as described above
 * tab indents removed in front of `<li>`s because it messes up the white-
 space if the theme author wishes to have none.

 Default markup of a menu, `wp_nav_menu` is:

 {{{
 <ul><li><a /></li>
 <li><a />
         <ul class="sub-menu"><li><a /></li>
 <li><a /></li>
 </ul>
 </li>
 </ul>
 }}}

 If the theme author specifies no white space between items, it becomes

 {{{
 <ul><li><a /></li><li><a />
         <ul class="sub-menu"><li><a /></li><li><a /></li>
 </ul></li>
 </ul>
 }}}

 `wp_page_menu` defaults to the white space free version.

 This will need unit tests. I will need help and advice writing them. :)
