This is a minor suggestion, but I think one that could be quite beneficial. I have yet to develop a Drupal site where there weren't a lot of add-on modules. And when I say "a lot", I mean at least 50-70. The reality is all these modules are going to make the "Site Configuration" menu in Admin Menu *very* long.

I really like the fixed positioning option in Admin Menu, but I can never use it because my list of modules under "Site Configuration" always extends off the screen. I'm forced to use absolute positioning, then use my mouse wheel to get to the options.

Instead of a singular dropdown menu, I'd like to recommend for the "Site Configuration" menu to be constructed similar to how the classic Windows "Start" Menu works. Menu items are laid out in a grid so nothing overflows off the page.

I know in the module notes it says, "Note: In some browsers this setting might cause malformed page contents, a disappearing cursor and not editable select lists in forms. If such effects occur, this setting should be disabled." However I thought it would be worthwhile to mention this because I think it could be a significant usability improvement for the module.
