Menu Limit with "More..."

Thought I would post this under features so it doesn't get lost in the X3 Help forum.
In addition to the menu limit... it would be nice if there could be a 'more...' option that would place a more link after the last menu entry.

Do you mean for the mega menu, and do you mean to have the "more" button at the bottom of each column? Also, do you mean to have the "more" button at the bottom of list even if all items are displaying?
The more button would basically go to the same location as clicking the header ...

Yep... the Mega Menu... at the bottom of each list only if there are more items to display. Agree... The more button would basically go to the same location as clicking the header

How would you propose to define the max amount of items per column?

Possibly a parameter on the 'list' menu setting?
Menu: list 5

It should definitely go in the menu setting ... Perhaps even a setting
limit-all:X, which sets a limit to the amount of items for ALL recursive children. We already have
limit:X which limits the amount of of items for the folder it is defined, but that does not affect child items. This way, the setting could apply for other menus also, including vanilla dropdowns and future stuff. I'll figure something out ...

Hey Karl...
I have been playing with the 'Limit' field in the menu settings. It would be great to have an option that if I set the limit to say 3... and there are 10 Child Pages... the menu would show the first 3 then an additional link that says 'more'. Clicking the 'more' line would take the user to a page listing all of the children.
Thoughts?

For reference, are you speaking on behalf of items in the dropdown-menu "Mountaineering"?
Yes, it might be a useful feature.
