action menu frustration

Ok, here's a question for you. My biggest UI frustration in using Plone 
2 are with the action menus. They are very sexxy but because they are 
positioned in ecmascript they are very brittle: they don't survive 
structural CSS changes.

A simple example to illustrate the problem: if you put margin or padding 
on body, then the action menu is offset by that much.

Are other folks running into this problem and how are you solving it? It 
seems like a solution would require changes to the ecmascript, since 
styles in the stylesheet are gonna be overridden by the inline styles 
set by the script.

Any thoughts?
