  | Maybe some small javascript wrapped in a jbpm:higlightmenu tag that takes an id as a param and sets the class of that id to something different. Should not be to difficult I guess. You just have to explicitly assign id's to menuitems.... This way the navigation does not realy influence the menu (at least not the highlighting)

Yeah, the main issue I had was associating a screen with the menu item.  I thought about perhaps using view ID for this purpose.  I will think about this some more.

Ah, no those don't use UL, they're just consecutive DIVs (well, also A and SPAN with display:block set on them).  Changing them is as easy as changing the CSS.
