Hello Adrian,
If I understand you correctly, you would like to insert a Kendo UI Menu into a Bootstrap navbar and the Kendo UI Menu should adopt the same behavior, which is observed at:
http://getbootstrap.com/examples/navbar/
Unfortunately, this is not possible, as the Kendo UI Menu has been designed with different behavior and we have no intentions to couple it so tightly with the Bootstrap nav bar. What we could do in the future is to make the Kendo UI Menu switch from horizontal to vertical layout, depending on the browser viewport size. You can vote for such a feature at:

As far as compatibility goes, Kendo UI now works with Bootstrap 3 CSS on the page, which used not to be the case, because Bootstrap 3 enforces non-default reverse box model on all elements on the page, which breaks all content, which relies on the default box model.
