[LeftNav] Make composable

[puppybits]

Is there a way to make the LeftNav component composable? I need to add a custom component into the LeftNav. Is there a way to add another MenuItemType or pass in children into the render function on the LeftNav?

Yeah I don't understand why this isn't the default behavior. +1

Would love to see this, I'm trying to apply additional styles to the Menu that is currently wrapped in LeftNav, but there doesn't seem to be a way?

Did you guys figured a work around ?

Also shouldn't the menu items of a leftnav be declared as elements instead of json passed as an attribute?

<LeftNav>
         <MenuItem 1/>
         <MenuItem 2/>
         <MenuItem 3/>
</LeftNav>

I'd go even further than @olivierGM's suggestion:

<LeftNav>
    <Menu>
        <Menu Item />
        ...
    </Menu>
</LeftNav>

This way I can put whatever content I like in there.

This is now possible with the improved LeftNav.
