HPA, is this documentation alteration the proper intention OR should
the menu system be corrected, including a change such that the
tagname, if set, is always shown in the parent and probably an
additional directive 'MENU INHERITTITLE' to state that the tagname
should be shown on the parent and the title of the child should be the
same as the parent.  OR should the tagname not affect the child's
title?
