 Hi there,

 i have got a simple example according to the WooCommerce Endpoints meta
 box.

 {{{#!php
 function add_nav_menu_meta_boxes() {
         add_meta_box( 'test-metabox', 'Test MetaBox Title',
 'test_metabox_callback', 'nav-menus', 'side', 'low' );
 }
 add_action( 'admin_init', 'add_nav_menu_meta_boxes' );

 function test_metabox_callback() {
         echo '<div>Test Content</div>';
 }
 }}}

 //I think the behavior of the sample meta box is not the appropriate
 behavior, because the meta box does not appear in Customizer, only the
 meta box toggle. I will add some screenshots, too.

 // My workaround for the problem is using a '.metabox-prefs' selector
 instead of '.metabox-prefs:first' selector.
