You can see the design we came up with here - https://www.patternfly.org/wikis/patterns/navigation/primary-navigation-bar/examples/

This is really just a visual treatment of what the context selector would look like in a horizontal navigation. The interaction is basic to serve as a starting point. It looks to me like Gabriels requirements are much more complex than what we accounted for. Also based on what I have seen in Hawkular I would not change his visualization either.
