You are right, the easy way is described...

Yes, menus should be nothing else than ul/li/a-trees styled with CSS.
But when I have a foldable menu, clicking a page link which
results in a new page (without ajax...), how can I restore the last
menu state folding and deactivating the active page's link?
(without cookies)

So is it the best to use <wicket:link> for the links (which takes care about
deactivating the link to the actual page) thrown into a hierarchically
ul/li/a-tree? That would leave the question open, how to unfold the tree to
the level where the active link resides...
