Hi,
My site isn’t live yet, so I can’t send you a link — but if it helps, I’ve created a gist that has page source with the plugin off and plugin on, so you can see the effect and maybe run some tests on the “before” source. (By the way, I initially thought that the problem might be that the menu item in question is called “Links”, but I changed the name to something else and the issue persisted, so I’m pretty sure it’s the fact that there’s no href.)
