NavItem should make text linkable and not entire list item

Describe the issue. What is the expected and unexpected behavior? We’ve gotten some feedback that the default browser behavior which shows the URL in the bottom left corner is distracting while hovering around the navigation:

Please provide the steps to reproduce. Feel free to link CodeSandbox or another tool.
