Patch attached to introduce a delay in the update of the sub-navigation menu as a user mouse-over's the main navigation menu.

I'm presuming others are not as accurate with their mouse and sometimes accidentally hover over the parent nav whilst trying to select a subnav option. In this instance, the user then needs to go back and reselect the intended parent nav option again.

The patch below introduces a 0.75s delay.
