Should we highlight the current page you are on, within the new user menu?
For example:
preferences page w/ menu open
In the case where the menu is persistently displayed on the page (rather than being something you open & close), it seems rather standard to highlight the selected menu item. In this case, the menu is hidden by default, so showing the selected state seems less important. I'm unable to come up with a strong opinion one way or another...
