I'm afraid I don't know of any, I confirmed it worked okay for me, by
disabling author suggestions, and using a very simple user stylesheet,
which just re-enforced the background for various block elements commonly
used with menus:
body,div,ul,table,menu { background-color:black; }
all other colours then come from your existing settings. This certainly
overcame the problem of the overlapping text - you may need to do more
than just those.

I've not managed to create a scenario where the menus at
http://www.rcslt.org/ fails - even your problem would be reasonable, the
mouseover would just give you some horrible mess which you could ignore
if you followed the link - the link works in addition to the mouseover.
That said the vast majority of menus require javascript and hide the
links without javascript, so I don't think they're accessible - I see
nothing wrong with the idea though.
Jim.
