I'm trying to work out how to acheive the following.

I want to have users be able to add pages into an existing menu structure from the node page without having access to administer menus. As far as I can see there is only all or nothing. Does the menu module need patching with extra permissions for this?

I want to have a menu item that has all its children hidded. The reason for this is that I have a page which lists links to staff biographies, but when you click on a staff bio the menu is no longer selected and the breadcrumbs are wrong. I can add them as children of that list menu item, but they are all visible. Disabling the child menus breaks the relationship as well. Will this require custom code to display the menu?

You are correct, the code is setup so that people with the administer nodes permission are able to directly change the menu settings from inside the node.

As for the children menus, there is an advanced menus module that gives a few extra options to the menus admin page, so you may be able to configure it as you like using that module.
