It is hard to hate this module. On my 5.x setups this is a beast with many, many great modules built in, including the Activemenu (Nice AJAX conversion of the standard Drupal menus), Activeedit (Great same page editing using a popup), Collapsiblock (Makes blocks collapsible) and a variety of other popular Javascript and AJAX related modules that made my life easier.
Version 6.x is here now and well, everything is gone. This is both a good and a bad thing. It is good because each project has taken on a life of its own and I am able to select projects I would use on 6.x, such as Active Menus, allowing for this module to now simply provide the tools for other modules. The bad is that this module is now updated a lot more than most of the modules that are on their own now. That is not a slam against this module though, it holds its own.
I like it, I use some of the modules that use it and I recommend it on all versions. I do prefer it standalone, but I am saddened by the fact that very little progress has been made on some of my favorite modules, like Active Edit. Still, like I said, it isn't the fault of this module, which has been stable for a while.
This module is a must-have for navigating the three-level admin menus no matter how the rest of your site is organized. Just click to see a submenu expanded, meaning you can go directly to the menu item you need. And of course it all degrades gracefully if javascript isn't available.
