Great article and demo, Al. I've been pondering some of these questions and
this seems like a very neat solution.

Nice work, Al. You may want to look at the Conclusion. You have "without
undo complexity" where I think you wanted "without undue complexity."

It's a tricky subject that sometimes the accessibility experts don't
even understand. Thanks :-)

Valid POV.

But, I gotta disagree. To an extent. Pop-ups (what I call fly-out
navigation) are usually always less accessible than a non-fly-out
alternative.

I know you got the smiley there, Al, but there are a LOT of very VALID
counterpoints to your article.

There is on RIGHT answer, so neither side should get overly smug and think
they know better than the other. ;o)

Also, it looks like you fixed a few of the complaints from the WebAim list.
(namely better keyboard navigation) Nice job.
