Enhancement: for usability I think the arrow from the menu should animate #5711

Hi,

Please open this -> http://quemfazsite.com.br/temp/aaa/modelo12/

Hover your mouse in the menu links at the top right. You can see that some links have an arrow right after them. The arrow is pointing down, meaning that if the user hovers this link it will display a menu below it.

After the menu is showing up you can see that the arrow changes it's orientation and now points upwards. So the user can know that if he gets out of the menu it will contract/slideUp.

If you check the MENU element and DROPDOWN element from SEMANTIC UI, they both show a nice arrow right after the parent element of the menu. HOWEVER after the user hovers the mouse in those parents the arrow keeps pointing down, there is no move.

I see many many websites that change the arrow orientation for usability reasons. Some websites even animate the arrow rotating it 180 degree so it points down/up with a nice animation.

I am not asking for animation, but if at least semantic ui could change the arrow orientation it would great, superb! It is a good step torwards usability and I think this is a good think cause, from my beginner perspective, semantic ui has a huge focus on usability! That's why I droped jquery ui, bootstrap... and started using exclusively semantic ui!
