After using the new docs layout a bit, the streamlined navbar is quite nice but it can be hard to know what is inside each item. I know you can currently do a manual dropdown item in the navbar, but would it be possible to have a smart navbar dropdown that shows you the exact same menu as shown on the section's left table of contents?

When navigating from other pages, this preview would help you find your way without having to click on each section to see its TOC. I know I *could* do this manually, but it seems quite tedious 😉 

Here are some similar ideas in practice:
