Got it, thanks. I mistakenly assumed that sections in the "maycache" section would be cached for the session. Turned out my own logic around forcing the menu to display in admin/build/menu section had me fooled into believing these were cached beyond a page load.

So that means that you simply cannot create or reposition, or make optional any menus that have logic in them? (which therefore cannot be cached?)

The conclusion is invalid. :p

What I'm ultimately reaching for is to be able to have a menu item only appear if the user is not logged in, and give the site administrator the ability to attach this menu to primary links, etc.

Am I thinking about this problem wrong? Is there another way to achieve the same functionality?

Yes, there is: Look at the "user" path and how it is handled. Cheers, Gerhard
