It is by design.  It attempts to "highlight"  the menu button for the
current page.  Gets a few wrong (like highlighting "logout" right after
a login, etc).  And there's been some discussion about the style it 
should use (instead of the yellow box) but no resolution yet.

"TAD (Technology Attachment Disorder) is an unshakable, impractical devotion
to a brand, platform, product line, or programming language. It's relatively
harmless among the rank and file, but when management is afflicted the damage
can be measured in dollars. It's also contagious -- someone with sufficient
political clout can infect an entire organization."
