全宽css下拉菜单

Question

我正在尝试创建纯粹简单的CSS下拉菜单，该菜单将在每个项目下方以全宽模式打开，但也会将每个下拉菜单保留在其父项目下方。 这个图像更好地解释了我想要实现的目标：

我无法弄清楚如何将嵌套的UL保留在每个li中，但也有一个全宽背景包装它。

以下是我在 Codepan 上准备的演示： http://cdpn.io/wLjFm

/* not very relevant styling */
h1         { font-size: 20px; padding-top: 20px; }
.container { position: relative; margin: 20px auto 0 auto; width: 75%; }
.header    { background: #eee; }
.nav       { background: #ccc; }

/* relevant styling */
body { overflow-x: hidden; } /* trick from css-tricks comments */

/* FIRST LEVEL */

.nav > ul > li { 
  display: inline-block; 
  position: relative; 
  padding: 3px 10px 3px 0;
  z-index: 100;
}

/* SECOND LEVEL */
.nav > ul > li > ul {
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  top: 100%;
  padding: 0 1000em; /* trick from css-tricks comments */
  margin: 0 -1000em; /* trick from css-tricks comments */
  z-index: 101;
  visibility: hidden;
  opacity: 0;
  background: rgba(255, 240, 240, 0.8);
}

.nav > ul > li:hover > ul {
  visibility: visible;
  opacity: 1;
}

.nav > ul > li > ul > li {
  padding: 3px 0;
}

.nav > ul > li:hover .drop {
  font-weight: bold;
}
