I've been meaning to add similar javascript menus to the main page for
2 years, so I'm glad someone has implemented this.
Another area on the main page that could really use this is the
shortcuts menu. There should be a "more" link with a new popup with
~5 additional shortcuts there. These menus keep growing but they
clutter the site so keeping them hidden behind a "more" link is a good
compromise and is used by other large websites with lots of secondary
pages to link to (e.g., google.com "more" link for other search
properties)
Things like the artwork page are far too minor to be represented in
any way on the main page, but it is nice to link to the handbook,
ports page, and other important second level pages more directly with
these javascript menus.
