More CSS class info in Pages widget would be very helpful.

  I’m trying to implement a hierarchical menu system. The additional information I’d like to see in the Pages widget – not necessarily the current widget but an improved one:

  1. A class id for the enclosing

  , e.g. <ul class=”pages_widget”>

  2. A class id for the page that is currently being viewed, e.g. <li class=”page_393 page_selected”>

  3. A class id for a page whose descendant is currently being viewed, e.g. <li class=”page_399 page_descendant_selected”>

  4. A class id for the

  of every sublist whose nth-generation parent is being viewed, e.g. <ul class=”parent_1_selected”>

  5. An additional top-level list element for the blog section, which could default to hidden, e.g. <li class=”page_hidden”>Blog

  I’m willing to be a guinea pig for such a feature.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Sorry, I forgot my markup would be interpreted. Here’s what I was trying to say:

  Bump, and a question. How realistic is it to expect something like this to be implemented? I could definitely understand how WordPress.com would prefer to deliver static widget HTML to boost their performance, but I’m hoping the answer is at least a firm “maybe”.

  Sandbox does offer more classes for parent and child pages.
