I played around with your syncAnimate function a fair bit. Here are the outstanding problems I encountered: 1) There's still a little bit of jumpiness 2) It gets "confused" by rapid changes. In my test (using hover rather than click) it occasionally forgot to collapse divs. Otherwise though, great job. I'll be watching the development of this very closely.
