I was interested in seeing how it worked. Does it have desired behavior?

1.I go to home i get:

 Welcome

2.I click on Hardware Category I get:

 Welcome > Hardware

3.Expand Hardware and go to Nails I get:

  Welcome > Hardware > Nails


4.Now, if I click on Hardware, either in the breadcrumb or the menu, I get:

  Welcome > Nails > Hardware


I would think that clicking on Hardware in #3 above, that "Nails" would simply
disappear.

I want my money back! 8-). My curiosity was peaked by this new feature so I
just tried it out on the demo. I just wanted to post my initial findings.
