I’m currently working on a site using the Menu module set to “Layout: Accordion”.

There seem to be a number of bugs with this layout type:

- Colour of the arrows/plus signs cannot be changed, so they can’t be seen on a dark background. They inherit the Link “hover” colour, but do not inherit the Link “normal” colour.
- Clicking on the titles of top level menu items with a sub-menu does not toggle the accordion, ONLY clicking on the arrows/plus signs toggle it. I think ideally this should be a setting, whether to allow clicking the title to toggle the accordion sub-menu or not.
- The module does not respect the “Close Inactive” setting, it is always “yes” regardless of what you set it in the module settings.
- Specifying “Dropdown Padding” and/or “Dropdown Link Padding” in the Style tab does not do anything.
